Hilton Worldwide is to open a second Waldorf Astoria property in Dubai.
The Waldorf Astoria Dubai International Financial Centre is scheduled to open in the autumn of next year, and will feature 247 rooms, as well as “a range of upscale dining options, spa and wellness facilities”, a ballroom and four meeting rooms.
The hotel will be situated within a mixed-use development on Al Saada Street opposite DIFC, and will join the existing Waldorf Astoria Dubai Palm Jumeirah, as well as three other Middle East properties in Jerusalem, Jeddah and Ras Al Khaimah.
Hilton is also set to open its first Curio by Hilton property in Dubai in 2018 (see news November 5, 2015).
