Dubai Home to Dorchester Collection’s First Hotel in Middle East


(02/02/24)
 
The Dorchester Collection has expanded its
portfolio of hotels to Dubai, with the opening of the group’s
first hotel in the Middle East.

The Lana, Dubai has not only become the tenth Dorchester Collection hotel
worldwide, but is also the first new opening for the group in more
than a decade.

The hotel, located on the Marasi Bay marina, is a 15-minute walk from Burj Khalifa and
the Dubai Mall,
and a 20-minute drive from Dubai International Airport (DXB).

Designed by Foster + Partners with interiors by
Gilles & Boissier, The Lana features 225 rooms and suites;
an infinity-edge rooftop pool; wellnes facilities; a variety of
meeting and event spaces; eight F&B outlets – including four that have been created with
three of the world’s most celebrated chefs; and the first Dior Spa
in the UAE, scheduled to open in April 2024.

The Lana’s five signature suites – Marina Duplex
and Marina Terrace Suites – have duplex layouts,
double-height corner living rooms, and outdoor terraces on both
levels.

The Marina Royal Suite, the hotel’s presidential suite,
features a balcony running along the length of the building, with
sweeping views of Burj Khalifa, while the two-bedroom The Lana
Royal Suite, envelops the north corner of the building.

Located on 29th floor of The Lana, the Dior Spa
will have five treatment rooms and one couple’s suite, and make
the most of cutting-edge
technology for treatments, including Icoone Therapy, Hydrafacial,
Dior Micro-Abrasion, and the Dior Skin Light LED therapy mask. The
spa
will also offer three signature treatments exclusive to The Lana,
including Escale at The Lana, Dior Stone Therapy and D-Sculpt.

“As Dorchester
Collection welcomes its first guests in the Middle East, we are
entering a new era in our company history,” said Christopher Cowdray,
President of Dorchester Collection. “The Lana is one of the
year’s most anticipated hotel openings, and we are certain it will
be celebrated for its remarkable design, superb location in one of
the world’s most vibrant cities and a dining scene that will
undoubtedly attract much local and international attention.”
