Crowne Plaza Dubai Marina opened its doors last week as one of the brand’s newly designed flagship properties. InterContinental Hotels Group currently operates 24 Crowne Plaza properties in the Middle East, with plans for eight more in the region. The Crowne Plaza Dubai Marina hotel is close to business hubs, such as the Expo 2020 site, Dubai Internet City, Jumeirah Lake Towers, Jebel Ali and Dubai Media City.

The hotel sits over 24 stories, offering 273 guestrooms including 61 Club Rooms and 32 suites. Guestrooms offer views of the water. Meeting and event space is plentiful and includes the first ballroom with natural light in the area.

On-site dining is available across six concepts. Charm Thai is the hotel’s signature Thai restaurant; Lo+Cale is an all-day restaurant with international cuisine; Connexions is the lobby lounge, serving coffee and to-go eats; Hive is the lobby bar; Nara is an Arabic-styled shisha lounge; and Aqua Marina is a pool bar on the fourth floor.

“Our flagship property in Dubai Marina is an exciting addition to the Crowne Plaza portfolio in the region. As a flagship property, the hotel will feature a new modern design philosophy which better meets the needs of our guests: productivity, advanced restoration and inspiration, seamlessly blending work and play. It features a new approach to lobby design, which can be used for co-working or relaxing. Its location makes it ideal for guests looking to stay ahead of their game while traveling for business; from a morning run on the marina waterfront walkway to after work chilling out in the heart of one of Dubai’s most exciting districts,” said Georges Farhat, general manager, Crowne Plaza Dubai Marina.
