InterContinental Dubai Marina...the group's latest development

InterContinental Dubai Marina opens

DUBAI, May 25, 2015

InterContinental Hotels Group, a leading chain of luxury hotels, has opened the InterContinental Dubai Marina, a 132-room luxury hotel with 196 fully-serviced Residential Suites in the centre of one of Dubai’s most popular and vibrant neighbourhoods.
 
The hotel is a showcase of cutting edge design and décor, with bespoke modern art, design and sculptures throughout. With stunning views of the marina and nine restaurant and bars on offer, InterContinental Dubai Marina creates the perfect setting for guests to enjoy all that Dubai has to offer.
 
Part of the Bay Central development, situated in Dubai’s newest hub for contemporary lifestyle in the heart of Dubai Marina, the hotel is located within walking distance of the Dubai tram and metro, and local tourist attractions including Jumeirah Beach Road (JBR) and The Walk on JBR, which offers a variety of restaurants and shops only five minutes away.
 
The hotel is home to a collection of nine stylish restaurants, lounges and bars, setting it up to be one of the new hot spots of Dubai, including, YNot, a wine and tapas bar; Accents, a restaurant and deli serving up dishes from around the globe; as well as Ginter, a gin bar with one of Dubai’s largest gin collections, Gallery Lounge and Urban Shisha Lounge.
 
The jewel in the hotel's crown will be Marina Social restaurant - British, Michelin-starred chef, Jason Atherton's first in the Middle East - which will open later in September. The restaurant will also include an exclusive bar, The Social Room, with mixologists creating unique cocktails using an eclectic range of spirits from around the world, and will be host to one of the largest whiskey collections in the city.
 
The hotel’s outdoor swimming pool has panoramic marina views, and guests can also relax in the male and female spas. Gym facilities offer separate weight and cardio rooms accessible 24 hours a day for hotel guests.
 
The hotel features generous meeting spaces across nine meeting rooms, all of which enjoy natural daylight and have seamless integrated audio and visual technology, making it ideal for holding corporate and exclusive events.
 
Michael Martin, general manager, InterContinental Dubai Marina, said: “My extraordinary team of professionals will bring our renowned InterContinental service and ambiance to one of the most exclusive neighbourhoods, Dubai Marina. The hotel’s unique personality will allow guests and residents alike to enjoy a vibrant new location.”
 
“With our diverse range of world-class restaurant & bars venues, we will bring a new vibe to the Dubai Marina, giving the city’s discerning diners the opportunity to experience some of the best flavours from around the world, all year round. We are confident InterContinental Dubai Marina will be the place to see and be seen in Dubai,” he said.
 
InterContinental Dubai Marina is the group’s fourth property in the UAE after the iconic InterContinental Abu Dhabi and InterContinental Dubai Festival City, and InterContinental Residence Suites Dubai Festival City.
 
IHG currently has 18 hotels open in the UAE across five brands: InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, Crowne Plaza Hotels & Resorts, Holiday Inn Hotels & Resorts, Holiday Inn Express, and Staybridge Suites. The company has another 10 hotels due to open in the next three to five years, including InterContinental Abu Dhabi Grand Marina and Crowne Plaza Dubai Marina in 2016, and Hotel Indigo Dubai Business Bay, the first Hotel Indigo in the country.
 
IHG has 79 properties in the Middle East, with an additional 26 hotels in their development pipeline. – TradeArabia News Service
