Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi opens
Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts has announced the opening of Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi at Al Maryah Island, a prime waterfront development in the United Arab Emirates.
The 200-key hotel is developed by Mubadala Real Estate & Infrastructure, which is also behind Al Maryah Island, Abu Dhabi’s business and lifestyle destination.
Ali Eid AlMheiri, Executive Director of the Real Estate and Investment division of Mubadala comments: “The fact that Al Maryah Island has the best of what Abu Dhabi can offer – breathtaking views and spaces including the stunning waterfront promenade, some of the capital’s most popular events, finest hotels and dining, luxury shopping as well as high quality healthcare – is a huge draw for tourists and local community. The opening of Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi on Al Maryah Island significantly adds to the island’s vibrant appeal. By offering the familiar brand of world-class hospitality, Four Seasons attracts loyal customers from all over the world. I am delighted to see that Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi is now fully operational at Al Maryah Island to deliver its outstanding and exemplary service.”
PLP Architecture has designed the 34-storey building, while interiors are by Richmond International and HBA. The hotel will provide unobstructed views of the area’s coast, as well as offering high-quality dining, recreation and relaxation facilities.
The 200 guestrooms and suites are a sanctuary of chic urban living with a comfortable seating area, private refreshment centre, spa-like bathroom and fully-customisable Four Seasons Bed. The Royal Suite, measuring 267m², is beautifully decorated with crystal chandeliers, handpainted silks, exotic marble and rich polished floors throughout.
Other highlights include a spa complete with two fitness centres, a rooftop pool terrace, and a number of bars and restaurants. Zsa Zsa is a stylish cocktail bar while Al Meylas is a bright and sophisticated lobby lounge serving Middle Eastern cuisine. These will be joined later in the year by Chicago-style steakhouse Butcher & Still, featuring interiors by AvroKO, and the first international outpost of Café Milano, with interiors developed by Tihany Design.
Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi at Al Maryah Island is the second Four Seasons opening in the UAE this year and the first in its capital, joining sister properties Four Seasons Hotel Dubai International Financial Centre opened in March, and Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach opened in late 2014.
