Ras Al Khaimah Hospitality Group LLC will act as the vehicle to support and accelerate hotel development projects to achieve the target of having 10,000 hotel rooms in the Emirate by the year 2016.

"The Rising Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah is fast becoming a strong contender within the global hospitality market and this Company will be taking an active role in introducing new hospitality projects. Launching Ras Al Khaimah Hospitality Group LLC is also an important step in regulating the Emirate’s food and beverage outlets, giving us the opportunity to review the existing facilities as well as introduce new dining concepts. I’m delighted to say that at this stage, a number of projects and upgrades are already fully approved." said Victor Louis, Chief Executive Officer, Ras Al Khaimah Hospitality Group LLC.

The Company will also be leading the upgrade and development of different hospitality assets, commencing with the upgrade of Banyan Tree Al Wadi resort, and the development of both the Waldorf Astoria Ras Al Khaimah and the 700-room Bab Al Bahr Beach Resort, each due to open in October 2012.
