Marina Hotel

Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

Situated along a marina, this 400-room luxury hotel features a variety of suites and penthouses, high-end retail, conference facilities, world-class restaurants, a luxury spa, and a yacht club. Two wings of the hotel converge at a central lobby, fronting a promenade that spans the entire marina edge with upscale restaurants and outdoor eating places. The yacht club terminates the western wing, which accommodates more than 100,000 square feet of retail designed in the form of a traditional Arab souk, complete with a labyrinth of streets and courts. The eastern wing contains conference rooms, the spa, and a ballroom. A three-story parking structure serves as the base for rooms and terraces above, providing guests with exceptional views of the marina.
