We at Gloria Hotels & Resorts are now focused on the creation of a broad range of quality properties across the region, in which to live, work, play,” added Sayegh.

Since its formation in 2010, Gloria Hotels & Resorts has opened the Gloria Hotel Apartments and the Yassat Gloria Hotel Apartments, both located on Sheikh Zayed road, Dubai.
