As Dubai continues to fuel its extensive expansion of tourism infrastructure, Central Hotels is looking forward to being part of the fast-growing economy. The two new hotels have been designed in contemporary style, to cater to modern business and leisure travellers.

“We look forward to contributing positively to the hospitality sector in the UAE”

Ahmad Al Abdulla, chairman of Central Hotels, said: “Our expansion strategy demonstrates our commitment to support the growth of the destination and its envisioned potential. We look forward to being part of this incredible success by contributing positively to the hospitality sector in the UAE. The emirates will continue to attract tourists from across the world with its diverse offerings. Our brand is ideally positioned to cater to the needs of local and international travellers seeking world-class service and facilities.”

Royal Central The Palm

Offering 207 rooms, Royal Central The Palm is a beachside hotel resort located on the East Crescent of Dubai’s iconic Palm Jumeirah. From the shores of the Arabian Gulf, guests can access the best private beaches in the city as well as unhindered views of the iconic location.

The resort offers an array of recreational facilities from water sports to outdoor swimming pools, a gym, health spa, along with dining options and the Hush Beach Bar, which will feature a different concept of food and beverage.

Canal Central in Business Bay

Canal Central is strategically located in Business Bay, which is minutes away from the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), Dubai Design District, Dubai International Convention Centre and Exhibition Halls, The Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa, and Dubai Fountains. It houses 280 rooms and suites that provide Canal or Burj Khalifa views, and a hand-picked selection of dining outlets, meeting spaces, gym and spa, salons, and an infinity pool.

Lilly’s Social House will also be coming to town for the first time, offering food, beverages and nightly jazz.

“While Royal Central The Palm offers travellers laid-back luxury in a fun and family-friendly atmosphere, Canal Central in Business Bay is ideal for corporate guests and business travellers”

Ammar Kanaan, general manager of Central Hotels, stated: “We are very pleased with these new hotels that have a distinct style and personality reflective of the neighbourhoods’ vibe and energy. While Royal Central The Palm offers travellers laid-back luxury in a fun and family-friendly atmosphere, Canal Central in Business Bay is ideal for corporate guests and business travellers while offering unobstructed views of the Dubai Canal and Burj Khalifa.

“In addition, both hotels will be made smarter and more environment-friendly with our paperless approach and initiative.”
