Guests can choose from short to long-term rents. 

Saudi Arabia has welcomed world-class hotel brands, from the sprawling resorts in the Red Sea to the urban escapes in Riyadh. Now, Blueground is making its debut in the Kingdom, and starting in the capital. 

Blueground has partnered with Masaleh Properties, and aims to bring 3,000 furnished rental apartments to Riyadh. As part of the strategy, the company is partnering with local businesses, from technology to operational experts, who can share their local knowledge of the real estate landscape. 

Bahjat Said, Head of Development at Masaleh Properties, explained: “We are excited to partner with Blueground and bring their innovative real estate solutions to Riyadh. This collaboration is a significant step towards advancing Saudi Vision 2030 by diversifying our investments and contributing to the growth and transformation of Riyadh.”

Blueground was founded by Alex Chatzieleftheriou. He grew up in Athens, Greece, and previously worked as a Management Consultant. After staying in hotel rooms around the world, he felt like the market was missing a trick, and lacked lets that felt like a home away from home. He teamed up with his friend and co-founder, Alexis Maragkos, and they created the company.  

Blueground prides itself on its flexible terms, which range from one month to one year and longer. The apartments are popular with travellers, remote workers and people moving to a new city. The handpicked homes are move-in ready with the latest technology and on-trend furniture. The apartments are located in the best buildings and neighbourhoods around the world. Available in 37 cities, the homes can be found in Dubai, Lisbon, London, Hong Kong, Singapore and more.
