Park Hyatt Jeddah

Yachts dock along the piers outside, which tells you something about the register of this low-rise marina hotel on Jeddah's southern Corniche. It's part urban resort, part private club, with separate spas for men and women and a Red Sea view from most rooms. The architecture speaks in Jeddah's own visual language rather than generic luxury-tower. Mecca is under an hour away, so the mix of guests runs wider than your average business hotel.
