Rezidor announces the Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Downtown
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
The Rezidor Hotel Group, one of the fastest growing hotel companies worldwide,
announces the Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Downtown. The property featuring 220
rooms is scheduled to open in early 2011. It is Rezidor's 4(th) Radisson Blu
Hotel in the Emirate - the group already manages the Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai
Deira Creek, the Radisson Blu Residence, Dubai Marina, and the Radisson Blu
Hotel Dubai Media City.
"Despite the slowdown, Dubai continues to have the highest RevPAR worldwide and
is an interesting market for Rezidor - and one of our focus areas in the Middle
East", says Kurt Ritter, President & CEO of Rezidor. "We see a promising
potential especially for business travellers, and the new hotel benefits from an
excellent location near the main commercial areas", continues Ritter.
Dubai Downtown is the new hub of Dubai hosting top attractions including the
tallest tower in the world, one of the world's largest malls, Dubai Mall, the
waterfall promenade and Souk Al Bahar. The hotel also borders Business Bay, a
mega project covering an area of 6 million square meters, which is designed to
be the new centre of Dubai commerce. Key destinations including Dubai World
Trade Centre, Dubai International and Exhibition Centre, and Dubai International
Financial Centre (the world's fastest growing international financial centre)
are within a few minutes' drive from the hotel's site.
The Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Downtown will be located on the upper floors of a
mixed used building located at walking distance from Dubai Mall and 10
kilometres from the international airport. It comprises 198 contemporary rooms
and 22 suites - all equipped with Radisson Blu signature services such as free
high speed internet access. Guests will also benefit from an all day dining-
restaurant, a speciality restaurant, a pub, 2 bars (including a rooftop pool
bar), and a sophisticated Business Class Lounge. Meeting facilities will include
6 conference rooms, 2 board rooms, and a business centre - and for those
combining business and leisure travel, the hotel will have a swimming pool and a
gym/spa.
Some rooms will offer breathtaking views of Burj Khalifa, with 828 metres the
world's tallest tower which was completed in early 2010. The tower is within
walking distance - as well as Dubai Mall featuring 1,200 retail outlets, a 220-
store Gold Souk, and more than 150 food and beverage outlets.
