Amsa Hospitality has appointed Ehab Barghouth as General Manager of AMSA VUE Riyadh Diplomatic Quarter, a Member of Radisson Individuals, as the property moves closer to its highly anticipated opening later this year.
Located in Riyadh’s prestigious Diplomatic Quarter, the new property is set to introduce a distinctive accommodation concept designed for business travellers, diplomats, families, and long-stay guests. Barghouth will oversee the pre-opening phase while preparing the hotel’s teams, operations, guest services, and commercial strategy ahead of its launch.
Ehab Barghouth Brings Extensive Hospitality Experience
Barghouth joins AMSA VUE Riyadh with extensive leadership experience across the Middle East’s hospitality sector. Most recently, he served as General Manager of Pullman Doha West Bay, where he was responsible for driving operational performance and supporting business growth.
His career also includes senior management positions with leading international hospitality groups, including Millennium Hotels & Resorts, Hilton, and Marriott International.
This experience has given Barghouth a broad understanding of hotel operations, team development, commercial performance, revenue management, and delivering high-quality guest experiences.
Leading the Pre-Opening of AMSA VUE Riyadh
In his new role, Barghouth will oversee the hotel’s pre-opening strategy and help establish the operational framework ahead of its debut.
His responsibilities will include building and developing the hotel team, implementing service standards, coordinating operational preparations, and ensuring the property is ready to deliver a consistent guest experience from its first day.
With pre-opening being one of the most important stages in a hotel’s development, his leadership will be key to establishing the property’s identity and positioning it for long-term success.
A New Hospitality Destination in Riyadh’s Diplomatic Quarter
AMSA VUE Riyadh is planned as a large-scale accommodation and lifestyle destination in one of the city’s most prominent districts.
The property will feature 240 accommodation units, offering a variety of options to suit different types of travellers. These will include duplex residences, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, villas, and townhouses.
The combination of different accommodation types is designed to cater to both short and extended stays, providing flexibility for corporate travellers, diplomats, families, and guests looking for a more residential style of accommodation.
The property will also feature a range of premium amenities and lifestyle services, further strengthening its appeal within Riyadh’s competitive hospitality market.
Supporting Saudi Arabia’s Growing Hospitality Sector
The appointment comes as Saudi Arabia continues to expand its tourism and hospitality industry under Vision 2030.
Riyadh, in particular, has become a major focus for new hotels, serviced residences, lifestyle developments, and tourism projects as the Kingdom works to attract more international visitors and strengthen its position as a global destination.
The arrival of new hospitality developments such as AMSA VUE Riyadh reflects the growing demand for accommodation that goes beyond traditional hotel rooms, particularly among long-stay travellers, business visitors, families, and international guests.
Barghouth’s appointment also highlights Amsa Hospitality’s focus on experienced leadership as it prepares to bring the property to market.
A New Chapter for AMSA VUE Riyadh
With the opening of AMSA VUE Riyadh Diplomatic Quarter approaching, Ehab Barghouth will play an important role in transforming the development from a pre-opening project into a fully operational hospitality destination.
His experience across leading international hotel brands, combined with his background in hotel operations and business growth, positions him to guide the property through its launch and establish its presence in Riyadh’s evolving hospitality landscape.
As the city continues to attract new visitors, businesses, and major international events, AMSA VUE Riyadh is set to add another accommodation option to the Kingdom’s rapidly expanding hospitality sector.
