Rove Hotels is to expand its portfolio with a
new hotel adjacent to Dubai Parks and Resorts, the massive
integrated theme park destination taking shape in Jebel Ali.
The new 458-room Rove At The Park hotel will be
located off Sheikh Zayed Road, close to Palm Jebel Ali midway
between the Dubai and Abu Dhabi International Airports.
Dubai Parks and Resorts will become the region’s
largest integrated theme park destination when it opens in October
2016.
The resort comprises three separate theme
parks: motiongate Dubai, a Hollywood movie inspired theme park
showcasing some of Hollywood’s most beloved characters from
DreamWorks Animation, Sony Pictures Studios and Lionsgate;
Legoland Dubai, the first Legoland theme park in the Middle East;
and Bollywood Parks Dubai, a first-of-its-kind entertainment
destination that will showcase the authentic Bollywood movie
experience. Legoland Water Park, the region’s first water park
catering to families with children 2-12 will also open on the
site.
The destination will also host the Lapita Hotel,
a Polynesian-themed hotel, and Riverland Dubai, a centrally
located retail, dining and entertainment district that serves as
the gateway to the resort.
Chris Newman, Corporate Director of Operations
at Emaar Hospitality Group, said, “A young and trendy brand, Rove
Hotels defines a new dimension in the evolution of the city’s
hospitality sector. Integrating innovation, sophistication and
cultural enrichment, the new Rove property will deliver incredible
value as it prepares to welcome guests from around the world,
particularly leisure travelers who will arrive in the area to
experience Dubai Parks and Resorts’ world-class leisure
attractions. We are keen to leverage the significant business
opportunity within the proximity of Dubai Parks and Resorts that
is set to catalyse Dubai’s leisure and tourism sector.”
The hotel will sport a contemporary and urban
design with Arabesque elements and display local art-pieces
throughout the public areas.
Rooms at the hotel will start at 26 sqm in size
and will feature a 42 inch TV screen complete with media hub,
designer mattresses and a modern bathroom. 30% of the rooms will
be interconnected making the property a family-friendly
destination.
The hotel will feature a business centre,
24-hour convenience store, 24-hour gym, pool, sun deck and a
self-service laundromat.
Rove Hotels plans to operate 10 hotels with over
2,660 keys to support the ongoing preparation for Expo 2020 Dubai.
The first property – the brand’s maiden initiative in the region,
Rove Downtown Dubai – is scheduled to open in the coming months at
a central location in the city.
