The Ritz-Carlton, Dubai
Location : Jumeira Beach
The terracotta roofs and pink walls of the Ritz-Carlton reflect an exotic blend of Arabian and Mediterranean architectural styles. Located on the exclusive Jumeira Beach, the resort, with its sprawling, terraced design, is unique among its modern, multi-storied, glass-walled neighbours.
Ritz-Carlton Hotels around the world have a well-deserved reputation for quiet elegance and superior comfort. Fine furnishings, luxurious fabrics, beautiful artworks, marble bathrooms, bathrobes and twice-daily maid service are among the standard amenities offered in every guest room. The decor may change to suit the special ambience of each different property, but the same high levels of luxury and service that are synonymous with the Ritz-Carlton name are consistently maintained.
One of the greatest pleasures of a stay at a Ritz-Carlton hotel is the gourmet dining - award-winning chefs, exceptional meals and outstanding wines are a matter of course for guests who are accustomed to the very best.
The hotel's signature restaurant, La Baie has a refined and intimate ambience. Featuring progressive European cuisine using the finest produce available, each dish is presented as a work of art. Splendido is a contemporary Italian restaurant offering a variety of fresh breads, pastas and deli items. Open for lunch until sunset, the Gulf Pavillion is an open-air poolside restaurant serving grilled seafood and light meals based on Asian and the Pacific Rim cuisine.
Situated adjacent to each other, intimate, stylish and comfortable, The Library bar and Cigar Room, with its rich carpets and tapestries, recreate a true library atmosphere. The Lobby lounge is a perfect meeting place at any time of the day. Fresh bakery items and a wide selection of morning coffees precede the popular Ritz-Carlton traditional afternoon tea.
Spread across 1,000 feet, the recreational facilities reflect a warm and relaxed atmosphere. An extensive Balinese spa and beach club offer facilities amongst the finest in the United Arab Emirates. Additionally, in contrast to mystical Eastern therapies, the spa offers European and Marine spa treatments. Individual consultations are arranged with therapists if you are looking for an energising or relaxing spa treatment. With its Balinese influence, the spa is an idyllic retreat for the body and mind.
Nearby attractions include Emirates Golf Club, just five minutes away from the hotel, whilst a short drive takes visitors to the city's traditional souks and shopping malls. Younger guests staying at the hotel are entertained at The Ritz-Carlton Kids' Club, where programmes of fun-filled daily activities await them. Dubai International Airport is 34 kilometres away.
