Hilton has signed a management agreement with Khamas Group of Investments and Bethahab Group to open a hotel under the Curio Collection by Hilton brand in Dubai's Business Bay district.

The 252-room hotel will be located on the Dubai Water Canal, near a 12km circular waterfront promenade which will include 16 parks, five marinas, ‘floating’ retail and dining outlets on the water and a yacht club when complete.

The property will also offer easy access to Sheikh Zayed Road and attractions such as the Dubai Opera, the Dubai Mall, the Dubai Fountains and the Burj Khalifa.

The upper upscale hotel will feature four dining outlets including a lobby lounge, an outdoor lounge offering shisha and an all-day dining restaurant with views of Downtown Dubai, Business Bay and the Dubai Canal. All guests will have access to spa, salon and fitness facilities along with an outdoor pool. The hotel will also offer a business centre, five meeting rooms and two boardrooms.

This latest property adds to the Curio brand's portfolio in the Middle East which will see The Rosemont Hotel & Residences, Curio Collection by Hilton open in Dubai in 2018. The region’s debut property, AlRayyan Hotel Doha, Curio Collection by Hilton opened in Qatar in 2016.
