The hotel’s management claimed that the hotel ran at full capacity by the time of the hotel underwent its grand opening.

Alya Al Noaimi is the hotel’s innovation advisor and creative director. She said: “I have always had an interest in how art and creativity can influence the fabric and flow of a building and our holistic approach is borne from my own experience of continually living at a crossroads of culture and ideas. We actually have more pieces of art in the hotel than rooms and I am so proud to have worked with Zeinab on this project who is such a strong, inspiring Emirati woman.”

The Dusit D2Kenz art programme is a collaboration of exclusive pieces from Emirati artist Zeinab Al Hashemi.

Wellbeing is a crucial facet at the property, with a spa, fitness suite and a rooftop pool.

DusitD2 Kenz general manager Bruno Guilloux said: “We believe that increasingly travellers are looking for an authentic, tailored experience, whether it’s for business or pleasure. We have created a comfortable environment that is both welcoming and personalised for guests in every way. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the art you see, the colours surrounding you to the design of the staff uniform. Our team is trained to ensure guests are treated as individuals so their needs are not just met, but exceeded.”
