Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia: The St. Regis Riyadh recently hosted an exclusive Media Iftar Preview event to unveil “At Suhail,” a luxurious Ramadan tent designed to reflect the elegance and warmth of royal Saudi hospitality. The gathering, which took place at the Astor Ballroom, provided select media representatives with an intimate first look at a space that seamlessly blends Saudi traditions with the sophisticated legacy of The House of Astor.
The ambiance of “At Suhail” was carefully crafted with soft green and lavender hues. The green tones symbolize the Kingdom’s prosperity, heritage, and strength, while lavender embodies the beauty, warmth, and welcoming nature for which Saudi hospitality is renowned. The decor of the tent was intended to evoke both serenity and grandeur, offering a tranquil and immersive setting for Ramadan gatherings, a space where guests could enjoy a harmonious blend of cultural heritage and modern luxury.

She noted that every element of the design held cultural significance, emphasizing the thoughtful attention to detail that went into making the tent a place of warmth and connection.
“The name ‘At Suhail’ draws inspiration from the Suhail star, a revered celestial guide in Arabic history,” said Zainab Tunkar. “Much like the Suhail star, which has long guided travelers through the desert, we envision this space as a beacon for guests during the holy month of Ramadan, a place to gather, connect, and experience the generosity and spirit of the season.”
