The first women only hotel opens in Riyadh

In the most conservative country in the world, where women are always kept in lock and key, safe from the eyes of other men, the kingdom's first hotel exclusively for females opened yesterday, offering plush lodgings with a full-range of health and beauty facilities for ladies to pamper themselves, away from the accusing eyes of a male-dominated society.
A hotel catering just for women has opened in Riyadh. The Luthan Hotel & Spa has 25 rooms and aims mainly at businesswomen in the region. he hotel is owned by a group of 20 Saudi princesses and businesswomen, where the facilities include conference rooms and health and beauty treatments. Once inside the hotel, women do not need to be covered head to toe, as all employees are female.
Ironically, it is a hotel for women but it was left to seven princes headed by Sultan bin Salman, a son of Riyadh's governor, to officially inaugurate it.
