Rockwell Group Europe have designed the Le Méridien Oran Hotel and Convention Centre, which is owned by Sonatrach and is located on a cliff overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.
The signature Explore Spa is among the facilities and is inspired by European spa traditions. It houses eight treatment rooms, a whirlpool, a Turkish Hammam and an outdoor pool.
Meanwhile, the hotel - with 254 bedrooms and 42 suites - also includes an all-day dining restaurant with open kitchen; an authentic Italian eatery; a fitness centre; and a lounge bar.
Vincent Gillet, global brand leader for Le Méridien and W Hotels Worldwide, said: "Le Méridien has long had a presence in Africa, and the opening of Le Méridien Oran is a key milestone as we celebrate the brand's strongest performance levels in its history.
"Since being acquired by Starwood more than six years ago, Le Méridien has undergone a comprehensive brand re-launch, and we are proud that Le Méridien Oran showcases many elements of the new Le Méridien brand direction."
