The four-star deluxe Wyndham Dubai Marina, which is managed by
Wyndham Hotels & Resorts - the world's largest hotel management
firm - marks a major milestone for The First Group, which has built
its reputation on developing high-quality serviced apartments and
aparthotels in Dubai.
Wyndham Dubai Marina also marks a significant addition to the
thriving Marina district.
The 32-storey, 486-room property is situated in a prime location
offering stunning views of the Gulf and Dubai Marina, one of
Dubai's most exciting districts,
as well as nearby Bluewater Island,
which will soon be home to the world's largest Ferris wheel, Dubai
Eye.
It is guaranteed to prove popular with business and leisure
guests alike, being located within walking distance of the Marina's
major attractions, amenities and transportation links including
Dubai Metro and Tram
services.
Wyndham Dubai Marina boasts an extensive range of dining
options, consisting of the Range Grill Restaurant & Bar,
Essence all-day dining outlet, Chillz Pool Bar and Café Azur Lobby
Lounge.
Leisure facilities include a spa, gym and swimming pool, while
business guests are well-catered for thanks to the hotel's
extensive meetings and conference facilities.
The premium Wyndham Club Lounge provides stunning views
overlooking the Palm Jumeirah and Arabian Gulf.
Leisure guests can also take advantage of the hotel's safari and
car hire facilities, as well as its souvenir store offering a range
of gifts and mementos from their visit to Dubai.
The First Group previously marked the handover of the four-star
hotel with a ribbon-cutting ceremony in February, which attracted a
star-studded line-up headlined by Saudi football legend and The
First Group brand ambassador Majed
Abdullah.
Abdullah, who was hailed Asia's
'player of the century' and was known as the Arabian Jewel during
his career, is among a number of high-profile investors with The
First Group.
"The grand opening of Wyndham Dubai Marina marks a major
milestone for The First Group and is a significant development for
the Marina district," said Danny
Lubert, the company's co-founder and joint
chairman.
"In partnership with Wyndham Hotel Group, we will set new
standards for affordable luxury, catering to business and leisure
guests alike. Given Wyndham Hotel Group's vast global experience in
hotel management, we are supremely confident Wyndham Dubai Marina
will set a new benchmark for hospitality service in Dubai."
The grand opening of the property marks the debut of the Wyndham
brand in the UAE. Its parent, Wyndham Hotel Group, which manages
more than 7,800 properties in 72 countries worldwide, is one of the
hospitality industry's most respected operators.
