Cristiano Ronaldo made a blockbuster move to Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr FC last month. The transfer made the Portuguese the highest-paid athlete. Ronaldo will earn $500 million over a two-and-a-half-year deal. The former Manchester United superstar is yet to find a house for himself and currently lives in one of the best hotels in the country that will cost him $300,000 a month.

He is slowly adapting to the new life in the Asian country. After a poor start to Al Nassr’s career, he seems to have found his touch again. Ronaldo currently lives in a luxury hotel located in one of the tallest buildings in Saudi Arabia, Riyadh’s Kingdom Tower.

The five times Balon d’Or winner currently lives in a hotel named Four Seasons Hotel in Riyadh. It is located in a 99-story building. He has booked 17 suites for himself and his entourage for a month, including his security, family, and friends.

The Kingdom Suite is around 4,000 square feet and occupies the 48th to 50th floors. It boasts a panoramic view of the city and has a large dressing and dining room with a pantry. The hotel provides 24-hour room service for former Real Madrid legend, along with fitness classes. Other amenities include a gym, an outdoor pool, a house car, a spa, marble bathrooms, and a tennis court.

Ronaldo is searching for a house in the city and might live either in Al Muhammadiyah or Al Nakheel neighborhoods. The former neighborhood houses top restaurants in the city, whereas the latter boasts top international schools and is famous with families. Although, both areas are closer to Al Nassr’s pitch. He will stay at Four Seasons Hotel until then, which will cost him a whooping $300,000 a month.
