According to the latest STR Global Research, the company’s expansion plan-which includes 15,000 rooms under development- makes up 11.5 per cent of the entire MEA hotel pipeline.

“We’re experiencing increased optimism in the region and this is reflected in the number and quality of enquiries we are receiving,” said Rudi Jagersbacher, president, Hilton Worldwide, Middle East & Africa in the statement.
