Steigenberger Hotel Business Bay in Dubai has much reason to celebrate this year as it completes its one-year milestone as well as brings home two prestigious awards.

The hotel has embarked on its second year of operations this month just as the Dubai Canal project comes to completion. The 3.2km canal links Business Bay with the Arabian Gulf and the hotel features spectacular views of the highly-anticipated Canal – a major project for Dubai.
 
Furthermore, the hotel has won two awards, including the Best Newcomer award for Brothaus the German bakery and bistro at the Leaders in Food & Beverage 2016 awards and the Best Luxury Business Hotel in the UAE award at the World Luxury Hotel Awards. Earlier this year, the hotel also picked up the Leading New Hotel award at the Leaders in Hospitality Awards 2016.
 
In its first year of operations, the hotel has launched a series of hugely successful food and beverage outlets including one of Dubai’s most exciting and talked-about outdoor venues featuring spectacular views of Dubai Canal, The Backyard, Brothaus the German bakery and bistro, a neighbourhood eatery that is open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner and Swim & Tonic, an outdoor pool bar with breathtaking views of the Burj Khalifa.
 
Steigenberger it also set to launch a new rewards scheme called Shine Booker’s Loyalty Programme. Shine will reward regular customers with discounts across the hotel as well as various outlets in Dubai. The hotel has also joined the Award World Programme – Award World members can enjoy special privileges in Steigenberger and IntercityHotels, award points can be used to redeem hotel services or prizes.
