The First Group gears up to open WYNDHAM Dubai Marina

Leading property developer marks a major milestone by taking possession of its first hotel development in Dubai

Dubai, United Arab Emirates - Sunday, February 14th 2016 [ME NewsWire]

Leading Dubai-based property developer The First Group has taken possession of its first hotel development located in the heart of Dubai Marina: a 32-storey, 486-room, four-star property flagged under the globally recognized Wyndham Hotels and Resorts® brand.

Known as Wyndham Dubai Marina, the handover marks a major milestone for The First Group, which has built its reputation on developing high-quality serviced apartments and aparthotels in Dubai. The hotel will be managed by Wyndham Hotel Group and is set to become one of Dubai Marina’s landmark properties when it opens for business later this month.

“The handover of Wyndham Dubai Marina marks an important milestone for The First Group,” said Danny Lubert, the company’s co-founder and joint chairman. “In partnership with Wyndham Hotel Group, we will set a new standard for providing affordable, luxury accommodation in Dubai Marina, in line with the Dubai government’s vision to dramatically expand the upscale hotel sector.”

Daniel Ruff, president and managing director, EMEA, Wyndham Hotel Group said, “Tourism is a major driver of economic growth for Dubai and with annual overnight visitors increasing more than 7 percent in 2015, there’s a growing appetite within the city for globally recognized brands, like Wyndham, that not only deliver the experience guests demand but also the international reach. As the world’s largest hotel company, we bring a wealth of hospitality experience and expertise to a property that, because of investment from The First Group, is sure to become one of the most unique offerings throughout all of Dubai.”

Wyndham Dubai Marina, which will house 486 luxurious rooms and suites, is situated in a key location offering stunning views of the Gulf and Dubai Marina, one of Dubai’s most exciting districts, as well as nearby Bluewater Island, which will soon be home to the world’s largest Ferris wheel, Dubai Eye. The hotel’s prime location will help ensure its popularity with business and leisure guests alike, as many of the Marina’s major attractions, amenities and transportation links, including Dubai Metro and Tram services, are within walking distance.

Additional facilities at Wyndham Dubai Marina will include two restaurants (an all-day dining restaurant and a steakhouse and bar); a spa, gym and swimming pool with pool bar; meeting space; an executive lounge; as well as a coffee shop and souvenir outlet. Guests will also be able to take advantage of Wyndham Rewards®, the simple-to-use, revolutionary loyalty program from Wyndham Hotel Group that offers members a generous points earning structure along with a flat, free-night redemption rate.
