Three-night stay in Bali to be raffled off during the Indonesian Food and Cultural Festival
Riyadh’s leading ultra-luxury hotel is ready to astonish guests and visitors with a 10-day Indonesian festival celebrating the cuisine and culture of the country as well as offering an outstanding prize draw.
The Indonesian Food and Cultural Festival will take residence at Al Faisaliah Hotel, A Rosewood Hotel, from 18 – 27 March during dinner at La Brasserie restaurant. Everyone who joins the culinary and cultural extravaganza will be given a chance to encounter Indonesia firsthand.
On the final day of the festival, the restaurant will raffle off a holiday for two in Indonesia. The package features round-trip tickets with Garuda Indonesia Airlines from Riyadh to Jakarta and Bali, with a three-night stay at the Sanur Beach Hotel in Bali.
The festival, which coincides with the 60th anniversary of Garuda Indonesia Airlines, will be attended by Dr. Salim Segaf Al Jufri, the Ambassador of Indonesia to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, who will inaugurate the event’s launch on 18th March with the support of senior officials from the hotel and airline.
“We are excited to bring the rich, celebratory spirit of Indonesia to Riyadh with the arrival of the Indonesian Food and Cultural Festival,” said Wolfgang O. Pachler, Managing Director for Al Faisaliah Hotel, A Rosewood Hotel. “Hotel guests and Riyadh residents will be able to sample authentic Indonesian dishes in a festive atmosphere, a very entertaining option for families.”
