UAE-based hotel company Rotana continues its expansion across the Middle East and North Africa with plans for a beach escape in the Algerian port city of Oran, set to open in March 2023. Azure Rotana Resort & Spa promises 185 rooms and suites including eight sea-view Ambassador Suites, as well as five dining outlets, a state-of-the-art spa, indoor and outdoor swimming pools and a kids’ club.
The resort is currently under construction on the shores of the Mediterranean, close to some of the city’s top attractions including the late 16th-century Fort Santa Cruz, which stands proud on a hillside overlooking the city, and Place du 1er Novembre, the historic heart of Oran. Azure Rotana Resort & Spa will be the first Rotana property in Algeria and the company’s ninth hotel in North Africa.
