Dubai is set to reach new heights in luxury hospitality this November with the opening of Ciel Dubai Marina, Vignette Collection by IHG.
Soaring 377 metres above the waterfront, the 82-storey tower will become the tallest hotel in the world, and home to the planet’s highest infinity pool.
Designed by award-winning architect Norr, the sleek “eye of the needle” structure will house 1,004 rooms and suites, each boasting floor-to-ceiling glass windows with sweeping views over Palm Jumeirah, the Arabian Gulf, and Dubai’s sparkling skyline.
Operated by The First Group Hospitality, the landmark property puts guests in the heart of Dubai Marina, surrounded by world-class shopping, dining, beaches and attractions.
Its prime location also offers easy access to Palm Jumeirah, Uptown Dubai, the JBR beachfront and Bluewaters Island, home to Ain Dubai, the world’s tallest observation wheel.
Ciel Dubai Marina promises a wealth of lifestyle experiences, from eight distinct dining venues, including a multi-level modern Asian restaurant, to the record-breaking rooftop infinity pool and sky lounge.
Other highlights include a spa on the 61st floor, a gym with panoramic views, and exclusive access to Soluna Beach Club on Palm Jumeirah. Families can enjoy tailored experiences for children, while business travellers will benefit from an executive lounge and flexible meeting spaces.
Rob Burns, CEO of The First Group, said the launch marks “a landmark development that reinforces Dubai’s position as a global hub for tourism and business travel.
Standing at 377 metres, the all-hotel tower will redefine upper-upscale hospitality, blending innovation, luxury, and creativity through its striking design, world-class amenities, and breath-taking vistas.”
As part of IHG’s Vignette Collection, Ciel will join a portfolio of one-of-a-kind hotels designed to deliver distinctive experiences.
Dubai continues to strengthen its reputation as a hospitality powerhouse, with Ciel following recent openings such as Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab and upcoming launches including Mandarin Oriental Downtown Dubai and Zuha Resort Villas on the World Islands.
Ciel Dubai Marina opens 15 November 2025. More information is available at www.cieldubai.com.
