“We are delighted to partner with Marriott International, one of the oldest and most respected names in the hospitality industry. I am confident that Marriott’s wealth of experience and family friendly style will add immense value to the Marriott Al Forsan Hotel. This strategic addition of a world class hotel within the Al Forsan Village ecosystem was conceived during the initial design phase of the project, and this will significantly benefit the tourists visiting Abu Dhabi and residents alike. Marriott Al Forsan Hotel has a unique advantage as it is one of the only hotels in the country that will also offer the guests with an adventure tourism opportunity due to its strategic location next to the Al Forsan International Sports Resort,” said H.E. Saif Al Hajeri, Chairman of Al Forsan Holding LLC.
"We are extremely proud to have the Marriott Al Forsan Hotel as the first property with our new partners Al Forsan Holding. It represents not only a platform on which to grow our relationship but also to continue the expansion of our brands," said Alex Kyriakidis, President and Managing Director, Marriott International Middle East and Africa.
