Where to work: Marriott opened new hotel hub in Dubai for music series with global superstars

Dubai, UAE – 14 November 2017 –
Marriott International announced the latest in its global partnership with Universal Music Group: bringing its music series to the U.A.E. Celebrating the grand opening of Renaissance Downtown Hotel, Dubai, global superstar, Gwen Stefani, will be the next performance in this exclusive concert series.

Located in the thriving Business Bay district, Renaissance Downtown Hotel, Dubai boasts 298 guestrooms, including 65 sprawling suites, all thoughtfully-designed to tell a story. Led by the renowned interior firm WA International, the hotel’s design sets the stage to inspire a sense of spontaneous discovery at every turn:  from the dynamic art installation of Dubai’s cityscape that takes center-stage upon arrival, to the cheeky photography in each guestroom, complemented by a Pablo Picasso’s famed camel sketch reimagined into a 3D iron rod sculpture – both playful jests to reframe your stay. 

Culinary outlets at Renaissance Downtown Hotel, Dubai are set to become highlights of the city’s prominent and bustling food scene. Chef Masaharu Morimoto will open his first U.A.E. outpost of the famed-eponymous restaurant in December, while Chef David Myers will debut new contemporary concepts Bleu Blanc & BASTA!, which reflect a Southern French farmhouse and an urban interpretation of a Roman trattoria, respectively.  BHAR, the Arabic word for spice, will offer indigenous Middle Eastern cuisine and will debut as the hotel opens its doors. Alongside the opening of BHAR, Grounded will serve as the hotel’s premiere coffee shop with unique brewing methods from a variety of international beans.
