IFA Hotels & Resorts (IFA HR) has been awarded the top spot in the New Hotel Construction & Design category at the Arabian Property Awards for its Mövenpick Hotel Jumeirah Lakes Towers project.

At its core, the Mövenpick Hotel and Residence Laguna Tower is divided into hotel and residential areas segmented vertically. The hotel space consists of the ground floor reception area and the first eight storeys of the building comprising 168-rooms, while the remaining areas offer 294 residential units. The hotel’s neutral, modern interior was a collaboration led by world-renowned designers Design Work Portfolio (DWP).

Joe Sita, CEO, IFA Hotel Investments, said: “We are really pleased with this recognition from the Arabian Property Awards. Mixed-use developments are at the heart of our business and Laguna Tower is a perfect example of this with hotel, residential, retail and food and beverage all under one roof. For a mixed-use urban tower design to win in a region dominated by luxury beachfront hotels, makes the award that much more meaningful. We are extremely proud of the entire team.”
