Marriott International’s EDITION Hotels has welcomed its latest property in Dubai’s Downtown district.
The Dubai EDITION is the brand’s newsest addition in the Middle East following the launch in Abu Dhabi, in late 2018. The hotel is housed in a 23-storey building, with panoramic views of the Dubai skyline and unobstructed views of the landmark Burj Khalifa and the Old Town.

Having opened in November 2021, The Dubai EDITION heralds a new generation of modern luxury and pays homage to Dubai’s passion to create something entirely new. The result is an elegant, vibrant, urban hub that encapsulates the essence of this inspired city and sets the bar for luxury of the future.
As with all EDITION hotels, the lobby is a dynamic, social space that subtly reveals a sense of place and sense of time. In this soaring public space, the 50-foot-high domed ceiling is reminiscent of Italian architectural structures.
Guests are immediately drawn to the centrepiece, a seamless triple spiral staircase (pictured), a truly unique design statement that connects the lobby to other public spaces.
The property features 275 guestrooms, including 41 suites and a Penthouse.
The ground floor is home to Duomo, the theatrical Italian restaurant which has an outdoor terrace with views of the Burj Khalifa in the near distance. Tucked away in the lobby, Leon is a cosy speakeasy-style bar serving original custom cocktails and flavours from around the world. On the first floor, Jolie is a lively venue serving French cuisine inspired by Mediterranean coastal flavours.
Nestled in the heart of Downtown, The Dubai EDITION is minutes to Downtown’s bustling boulevard, The Dubai Mall and Dubai Water Canal, and close to Burj Khalifa, Dubai Opera, the soon-to-open Museum of the Future and the financial district.
