Dubai: Millennium Hotels and Resorts on Thursday opened the doors of the first Copthorne Hotel in the UAE.

Copthorne Hotel Dubai is located in Port Saeed, Deira just five minutes' walk from the shopping and entertainment complex, Deira City Centre, and ten minutes from the Dubai International Airport, overlooking the picturesque Dubai Creek.

Commenting on the announcement, Reda Moukhtar, general manager said: "With an average room size of 40 to 135 square metres, the Copthorne Hotel Dubai will be a welcome addition to the deluxe hotel sector in Dubai, with services and facilities to rival any in the city.

"Whether for business travellers requiring spacious accommodations in which to work and relax, or suites and additional bedrooms for families, the hotel will cater to a varied market and nationality base.

"While we anticipate tremendous interest in the hotel from countries within the GCC due to the hotel being within walking distance of the Deira City Centre, corporate guests from around the world will benefit from staying minutes from the Dubai International Airport, close to outstanding golf courses and with easy access to all main Dubai highways."

With 163 rooms and suites, Copthorne Hotel Dubai also offers four restaurants, swimming pool, health and fitness centre, business centre, meeting rooms and Club Floor.
