Sheraton Dubai Creek Hotel & Towers to re-open this month

The Sheraton Dubai Creek Hotel & Towers is to re-open in the first half of this month following a massive five-month renovation – the final phase of its multi-million-dollar property refurbishment.

Almulla Enterprises LLC, the property's owning company, has invested over US $10 million in this latest upgrade phase, which brings the total investment in renovating the unique Creek-side property to more than US $20 million over the past five years.

"The hotel will re-open early October delivering to our guests a world-class facility," said James Munro, Area Manager, Dubai & General Manager Sheraton Dubai Creek Hotel & Towers.

"With its brand new look and exclusive location on the Creek, the hotel now provides more Creek-view rooms and a new façade with panoramic views", added Munro.

The hotel also offers Dubai's newest conference facilities, an enhanced lobby, outstanding food and beverage outlets, upgraded rooms with state-of-the-art data connectivity and additional car parking.

The 255-room Sheraton Dubai Creek Hotel and Towers, which has 30 suites, now features a new elegant honed limestone exterior and a stunning, landscaped front entrance with a new spacious lower lobby with direct access to the hotel's Executive Conference Centre and Dubai Ballroom. A dedicated elevator gives disabled access to lobby level.

"Guest rooms and suites now have uninterrupted views across the Creek and of the city," said Munro. "Our average room size is 42 square metres which is well above the industry norm.

"The rooms and suites all have refreshed colour schemes, improved data-connectivity and the latest in electronic door lock systems. Our Tower rooms all now have Grohe hi-tech shower heads and the latest in bedding comfort."

As with the new-look front entrance, natural colour schemes and Italian marble dominate the refurbished atrium lobby, accessible by guest escalators and a sweeping grand central staircase. The atrium also boasts sit-down check-in and the revitalised Lobby Café. 

"The lobby design has retained the soothing ambience delivered by the hotel's signature cascading waterfall which has been enhanced with the addition of a beautiful glass pyramid fountain," said Munro. 

An upgraded business centre, catering to the needs of the modern business traveller, is now next to the hotel's Executive Conference Centre, which, in turn boasts a new hi-tech boardroom for up to 10 people.

The wood-panelled and chandeliered Executive Conference Centre is thickly carpeted throughout and equipped with ergonomically designed chairs, modular tables and digital audio-visual equipment, with easy access to power and data outlets. 

The redesigned Dubai Ballroom now boasts an enlarged foyer with natural daylight and the elegant Hatta Room connects to the new pool deck, offering the option of an extended single venue.

"Given Dubai's ascending profile as an international Meetings, Incentive, Convention and Exhibitions (MICE) venue, the new facilities are expected to have widespread industry appeal," said Munro.

An earlier renovation phase saw a complete upgrade of restaurants, rooms, suites and some conference facilities.
