The Address Hotels and Resorts will open its sixth luxury property this spring, located in the prestigious downtown Dubai area within a 72-floor “curvilinear tower” directly connected to the Dubai Mall.
The Address Boulevard Dubai, which stands at a staggering 368 metres, will open “by April 2017”, the company said in a statement. It’s been described as a destination that is perfect for both business and leisure travel.
The new hotel will feature 196 guestrooms and suites and 533 serviced apartments, as well as a fine dining restaurant on the 70th and 71st floors. The restauarnt promises to “serve dishes that reinvigorate the art deco era through a global bistronomy inspired menu”.
Leisure facilities will include a 760 sqm spa with private vitality pool, herbal steam rooms and traditional hammam, as well as three swimming pools including a “cascading, outdoor swimming pool [which] will have slides and a waterfall for family fun”.
The Address Boulevard Dubai’s public spaces will feature a total of over 250 pieces of art by 48 artists, including large-scale sculpture ‘Wings’ on the driveway to the hotel by British sculptor Ben Barrell, and a four-metre chandelier in the lobby by Czech designer Jana Ruzickova.
The hotel will be the second tallest building in Downtown Dubai, next to Burj Khalifa, and the 36th tallest building in the world.
Pascal Dupuis, General Manager of The Address Boulevard Dubai, told Luxury Lifestyle Magazine: “Downtown Dubai is one of the premium destinations that drive the tourism, retail and hospitality sectors in the city. Having welcomed over 80 million visitors last year, The Address Boulevard Dubai is a stand-out addition to the Dubai property portfolio and skyline, offering both hotel and residents a wide range of world-class amenities.
“The Address Boulevard Dubai and The Address Residences Boulevard Dubai bring an unbeatable lifestyle proposition with the architectural brilliance, spectacular location and superior service standards. With the new property, we are bringing to life the impressive aesthetics of classic architecture in a city lifestyle resort that offers great connectivity to all key attractions in Dubai. The Address Boulevard Dubai will be as much a family destination as a great choice for business travellers.
“A stay at The Address Boulevard Dubai offers sophistication and fine living from an exclusive limousine service to a three-tiered pool side oasis, elegant dining venues, luxury spa and unrivalled views of the city from the rooftop lounge. Guests of the hotel can also access exclusive experiences at Dubai Opera, The Dubai Mall and Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo.”
