Dubai hotel openings: these are the 7 coolest places to stay 2022

The Emirates remain one of the hotspots for international travelers. And they can look forward to some stunning hotel openings in Dubai.

February 24, 2022


Last year, the Arab Emirates welcomed more guests than ever before. No wonder, after all, there are several reasons to visit Dubai . One of them is certainly that the hospitality industry is rapidly evolving here. Numerous major brands announced their entry into the market or expansion plans in recent months. However, more and more independent hotels and budget boutique hotels are finally coming to the Emirates. The 7 hotel openings in Dubai that deserve a spot on the bucket list include:

Why book: Surrounded by maximum tranquility and endless sand. And above you the spectacular starry sky in the desert. This is the experience guests of the Nomadic enjoy. The glamping concept, unique to the UAE, has no fixed location. The Lotus Belle tents change their location. Guests are sent the coordinates on the day of arrival. On site, a fully equipped tent including BBQ grill, picnic basket, torches, firewood and a supply of chilled drinking water awaits them. The next morning, after a Bedouin breakfast at sunrise, they head back to the city.

Price: from € 240,-/night and tent

 

NH Dubai The Palm

Opening: 2022

Why book: Actually, the NH Hotel should have opened in December 2021. The opening day has now been postponed to a rather indefinite "2022". This makes the anticipation for the brand's first hotel in Dubai all the greater. It is located on the west-facing trunk of the Palm Jumeirah. In addition to 533 hotel rooms, it will offer a sports bar, a rooftop bar and an infinity pool. The latter will be the hotspot for sundowners thanks to its westerly location. In any case, one can be curious, because there are still neither real photos nor a phone number or even a website.

The Royal Atlantis

Opening: September 2022

Why book: The hotel, sometimes called The Royal Atlantis, sometimes Atlantis The Royal, opens directly adjacent to the legendary Atlantis The Palm. To call the silhoutte spectacular would be an understatement. The two wings of the building house 800 rooms and suites. They face Aquaventure Park and the lagoon. The northeast-facing wing houses the private residences and apartments. The connecting element will be a sky pool with lounge at a height of 90 meters.
