Marriott International is set to launch its EDITION brand in Africa following a deal with V&A Waterfront Holdings in Cape Town. The development, which includes a 142-room hotel and six exclusive private residences, is slated for completion in 2026. Designed by Neri & Hu and StudioMAS, the project will be located at the edge of the Granger Bay development.
Marriott International has made its debut in The Democratic Republic of the Congo with the simultaneous opening of Protea Hotel by Marriott Kinshasa and Four Points by Sheraton Kinshasa. The hotels, managed by SARV Management LLC, offer tailored experiences for business and leisure travellers, with the Protea Hotel featuring 88 rooms and the city’s first indoor pool, and the Four Points by Sheraton offering 134 rooms, a rooftop pool, and 230 square metres of meeting space.
The Red Sea EDITION has officially opened as the first hotel on Shura Island, marking a defining moment in Saudi Arabia’s luxury tourism evolution. Developed in collaboration with Red Sea Global, this 240-room beachfront resort embodies a new era of sustainable hospitality and refined simplicity, powered entirely by renewable energy and designed in harmony with the surrounding natural beauty of The Red Sea.
The St. Regis Al Mouj Muscat Resort has named Fatma Kurt as Director of Marketing and Audra Arul as Director of Sales & Distribution, a move that highlights the resort’s ambition to redefine luxury hospitality in Oman.
