Fairmont Dubai Skyline will be located on the Sheikh Zayed Road, and will offer awe-inspiring architecture through asymmetric balconies, which will be cleverly lit upon nightfall, with a spiralling 4.5 kms of lighting to give an illusion of movement. Exceptional living spaces and high-end designer furnishings will be curated by award winning masters such as Kristina Zanic Consultants, with a breath-taking magnificence that will continue to captivate and delight guests overtime.
Fairmont Dubai Skyline will become the first high rise on Sheikh Zayed Road after Downtown Dubai, offering unhindered views of Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab, Palm Jumeirah, Blue Waters and Ain Dubai.
“This is a true milestone for us in the region and for Fairmont Hotel and Resorts to introduce such a unique building in one of the most vibrant locations in the world. Through its distinct presence and unique architecture, the property will not only become an iconic Fairmont, but a landmark in Dubai,” said Mark Willis, CEO of Accor India, Middle East, Africa and Turkey.
Fairmont Dubai Skyline will feature 54 floors across its 226-meter-high tower, featuring 181 hotel rooms and suites, alongside 121 residences of two, three and four-bedroom apartments, offering 360 degree views of Dubai’s glittering landmarks, as well as a stunning full floor penthouse located on the highest floor.
