The luxury hotel and residences is the latest in a series of mega developmen­ts being undertaken by Meydan Group, which include large scale mixed-use urban and leisure developmen­ts across various prime locations in Dubai. The Corinthia at Meydan Beach, as the hotel and residences will be known, will comprise 300 bedrooms and 60 high-end serviced apartments when it opens for business in 2019. Its grand architectu­re features a stepped podium wrapping around lavish, landscaped pools and gardens cascading onto the beach, and offers extensive indoor and outdoor leisure and dining facilities, a luxury Spa, a club and banqueting amenities. A 55-storey tower comprising residentia­l apartments, bedrooms, suites and entertainm­ent zones will sit atop one side of the podium, commanding views of some of the most spectacula­r sights in Dubai, including the Palm Island and the Dubai Eye under developmen­t across the waters. Meydan Board of Director Mohammed Al Shehhi said, “We are very happy to have appointed Corinthia to operate our new luxury hotel under constructi­on at Meydan Beach. Our core business is the global management of horse racing, as well as large scale mixed use real estate developmen­ts in Dubai. With Corinthia as our hospitalit­y partner, we continue to complement our array of capabiliti­es in ensuring world class delivery of products and services, with our flagship beachside developmen­t as a starting point.”

Corinthia Chairman Alfred Pisani, said, “The energy, vision and quality of resources assembled for this project by Meydan, and now including Corinthia, will ensure this will be another landmark milestone for us, and for Dubai.”
