The Gulf Hotels Group, a leading hospitality chain in Bahrain, plans to open three additional four-star properties in the kingdom by mid-September.

The three new properties are the Gulf Inn Manama, located adjacent to Bahrain Exhibition Centre; the Gulf Court Seef located in the heart of the Seef business district; and Gulf Residence Amwaj, set in the beautiful surroundings of Amwaj Island.

The new projects are part of Gulf Hotels Group ongoing expansion plans which include the addition of a state-of-the-art, 3,100-sq-m spa at the Gulf Hotel, the development of a multi-outlet restaurant complex in the Block 338 area, the building of a 108-unit luxury apartment facility in Juffair and the 240-room five-star Gulf Hotel Business Bay in Dubai.

Gulf Court Seef is spread over four floors and houses 94 luxurious rooms and suites. Each of the spacious rooms are equipped with chic marble bathrooms incorporating separate bathtub and shower plus all the amenities and features one would expect from an international four-star deluxe property.

For dining the Gulf Court Seef offers three restaurants serving Italian and Lebanese cuisines along with an all-day dining outlet. The hotel also boasts modern facilities that cater to the business traveller including spacious meeting rooms and a boardroom featuring the latest in modern technology. The meeting rooms can accommodate up to 50 guests.

The Gulf Inn Manama, ideally located just adjacent to the Bahrain Exhibition Centre and close to all the major shopping malls, features 215 spacious rooms and suites, complete with all modern amenities. Excellent meeting facilities will also be available, with three flexible meeting rooms complete with audio visual equipment and meeting support service.

Facilities include a health club, a rooftop swimming pool, gymnasium, multi-purpose exercise rooms and children’s play room, together with Jacuzzis, steam rooms, and saunas.

Gulf Inn Manama will also offer its guests an excellent selection of authentic Arabic and Indian cuisines in the hotel’s all-day dining restaurant.   

The Gulf Residence Amwaj building features four-star luxury hotel apartments, within an ultramodern residential development called Amwaj Waves.

The Gulf Residence Amwaj project will feature a total of 173 spacious apartments made up of two studio units, 42 one-bedroom, 102 two-bedroom and 18 three-bedroom apartments, in addition to four luxurious four-bedroom penthouses, with stunning views over Amwaj Island.

All apartments have been designed in a modern, contemporary style with a focus on quality and functionality. Each apartment has spacious living and dining areas. Facilities will include an exquisitely landscaped swimming pool deck, fitness centre, an all-day brasserie restaurant, a lobby café and an array of shops, meeting rooms and ample parking space.

Gulf Residence Amwaj will offer residents the best of both worlds, combining a cosmopolitan lifestyle with a waterfront harbour experience, just a few minutes’ walk from the bustling Amwaj Lagoon and Amwaj’s renowned beaches.

“This is line with Gulf Hotels Group expansion strategy of adding hotels and luxury apartments in key locations which will be managed to the highest international standards” said Aqeel Raees, Group chief executive officer and board member.

“These latest additions will join the group’s exclusive collection of unique independent properties and will not only offer guests every comfort, but also excellent value for money. The service will mirror the group’s core philosophy of providing five-star service for four-star pricing,” he said. – TradeArabia News Service
