Saudi Arabia  - Dur Hospitality, a leading Saudi hospitality company, has announced the signing of a strategic partnership with leading travel and tourism services company, Travel Destinations Solutions (TDS).

The agreement aims to promote Dur Hospitality's hotel brands and strengthen B2B connections, which will positively impact the company’s growth, expanding its offerings to a broader audience of the Kingdom’s visitors.
