IHG Opens Indigo Hotel in Dubai

IHG has expanded its portfolio of Indigo Hotels & Resorts with a new property in Dubai, UAE.

The Hotel Indigo Dubai Downtown, the first property in the Persian Gulf, opened its doors this month along the banks of the Dubai Creek, minutes away from Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Mall.

Each floor of the 269-room Hotel Indigo Dubai Downtown is dedicated to one artist, giving guests an opportunity to enjoy a variety of art on the way to their rooms.

The hotel features over 200 curated pieces of art with the aim of forming a collection that plays a role in telling the hotel’s neighbourhood story.

The artworks are created by not only local artists, but also by Dubai-based expatriates who have drawn inspiration from the city, the Emirati culture and the heritage of local vernacular.

The hotel also collaborated with Fatima Bint Mohamed Initiative to create unique rugs as part of the overall creative concept. The initiative is the UAE’s very own carpet production and community development programme empowering more than 4,000 female artisans in Afghanistan.

Facilities at the Hotel Indigo Dubai Downtown include a juice bar, Bakala Jooos concept store, a cocktail bar, restaurant and coffee shop.
