It includes four restaurants, an open-air pool deck, a luxury spa on the 71st floor, plus a health club and Jacuzzi.

"Our guests are looking for a good bed, a good cup of coffee and convenience. The hotel is in the centre of Dubai and we offer high quality service, in contrast to many of its neighbouring five-star hotels," said Mr Gorsia.
"We are going into the market at a rate slightly lower than the average around this area. The room rates that we will offer is considered very competitive," he added.
