Within months of the successful opening of its first hotel in Dubai on Jumeirah Beach Road, Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts has announced the development of a second, complementary location in the heart of the city’s International Finance Centre.
“Our entry into Dubai has been extremely well received by locals and global travellers alike, and we are very pleased to be able to offer them a second Four Seasons experience in the city,” said Allen Smith, President, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts.
“We look forward to building on our reputation with our second hotel, at the epicentre of the financial district.”
Four Seasons Hotel Dubai at DIFC, expected to open in 2016, is conceived as a sophisticated oasis where international business travellers in particular will find their every need anticipated and where local executives will find a favoured place for informal meetings, entertaining colleagues and celebrating the day’s achievements.
“The strategic location within DIFC was carefully chosen to cater to high end business travellers and will be of the highest quality,” added Shahab Lutfi, Chief Executive of Bright Start which also owns Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach.
At the same time, Four Seasons also announced the appointment of veteran hotelier Carlo Stragiotto as GM of the new hotel.
“Carlo is the ideal choice to lead the team at our second location in Dubai, and we look forward to his unique insights as we create this luxurious hotel in the heart of one of the world’s most exciting cities,” says Christian Clerc, President Hotel Operations – Europe, Middle East and Africa.
