Mansard Riyadh, a Radisson Collection Hotel

A Parisian-style facade pressed up against Salmani architectural lines sounds contradictory until you see it. This upscale hotel on King Fahad Road runs the full spectrum from rooms to penthouses to private villas, all done in oak, stone, and deep blues. The rooftop pool looks out over the Riyadh skyline, and the serviced apartments have real kitchens, which suits the business and government crowd that fills the floors.
