Marriott to open new hotel in Abu Dhabi

ABU DHABI, July 28, 2016

A new five-star Marriott hotel is set to open in Abu Dhabi, UAE, later this year following an agreement signed between Saif Mohammed Al Hajeri, chairman, Al Forsan Holding, and  Alex Kyriakidis, president and managing director of Marriott International.

The Marriott Al Forsan Hotel will be located adjacent to the Al Forsan International Sports Resort, which will allow the hotel’s guests to venture into adventure sports during their stay.

The property features 400 elegantly designed guestrooms and suites, seven restaurants and lounges, world class spa and fitness centre, 50-m lap and landscaped pools among other world class amenities.

“We are delighted to partner with Marriott International, one of the oldest and most respected names in the hospitality industry. I am confident that Marriott’s wealth of experience and family friendly style will add immense value to the Marriott Al Forsan Hotel. This strategic addition of a world class hotel within the Al Forsan Village ecosystem was conceived during the initial design phase of the project, and this will significantly benefit the tourists visiting Abu Dhabi and residents alike. Marriott Al Forsan Hotel has a unique advantage as it is one of the only hotels in the country that will also offer the guests with an adventure tourism opportunity due to its strategic location next to the Al Forsan International Sports Resort,” said Al Hajeri.

"We are extremely proud to have the Marriott Al Forsan Hotel as the first property with our new partners Al Forsan Holding.  It represents not only a platform on which to grow our relationship but also to continue the expansion of our brands," said Kyriakidis. "Located in close proximity to Abu Dhabi Airport, Khalifa City and Yas, Al Forsan is an incredible master development combining sports, residential and retail facilities. Now the Marriott Al Forsan Hotel will complement the development, and become the heart of the community."

Marriott Al Forsan Hotel is connected to all major highways that link the emirate with other cities in the UAE. The Abu Dhabi International Airport is just a 10-m drive from the hotel. - TradeArabia News Service
