Grand Hyatt Dubai, the Emirate's first City Conference Resort, and one among the support sponsors of the Dubai Shopping Festival, is a magnificent 674-room property situated near the shores of Dubai's Creek on the edge of Bur Dubai. In addition to hosting the largest and most advanced hotel conferencing facility in the region, the hotel also offers guests and visitors an unrivalled choice of dining and leisure facilities.
"Grand Hyatt Dubai has positioned itself as an integral meeting place for residents and guests," said Peter Fulton, General Manager. "Our aim is for guests to experience a unique level of dining and leisure facilities that veer away from the corporate, sterile feel of many large hotels."
Made up of four undulating structures, Grand Hyatt Dubai comprises a luxury hotel resort and residential apartments and villas, set within 37 acres of lavishly landscaped gardens. A stunning indoor landscape of just over 345 square metres of indoor gardens features a myriad of bridges crossing several streams, and four handcrafted dhows suspended from the lofty ceiling.
The 14 bars and restaurants at Grand Hyatt Dubai afford diners a view of both the hotel's indoor and outdoor landscaped grounds, and several offer alfresco dining on airy terraces. The choice of cuisine is as diverse as it is authentic, with a choice of Lebanese, American grill, Italian, Vietnamese, Singaporean and Japanese, all created by indigenous chefs in each restaurant's own kitchen. Two stylish bars, Vinoteca and Cooz, offer ideal venues for pre or post dinner drinks. For the ultimate end to a perfect evening, MIX, Dubai's superclub, offers alternate styles of entertainment with a varying ambience all under one roof.
Grand Hyatt Dubai's Convention Centre offers 4,340 square metres of flexible conference and meeting facilities served by its own private driveway, a grand entrance and lobby area.
To accommodate large-scale conferences, the hotel's Baniyas Grand Ballroom has the capability to seat up to 2,000 delegates theatre-style, and The Al Ameera ballroom can accommodate up to 800 guests for cocktail events and up to 550 for dinner. Nine meeting rooms and two boardrooms, equipped with the latest information technology, complete the Convention Centre to cater to the needs of functions of every size. An Events Lawn also provides for alfresco events.
The spectacular landscaped gardens mask the hotel's location within the heart of the city. The Grand Spa offers a host of recreational facilities and spa treatments within the vast resort grounds. Winding pathways lead past cascading waterfalls and tropical lagoons towards the hotel's spectacular outdoor pool area, with a specially designed children's and toddlers' pool area and a pool bar. Fitness-orientated guests can benefit from the four floodlit courts, two squash courts, 20-metre indoor lap pool and a fully equipped gymnasium. Using products by Italian skincare company, [Comfort Zone], The Grand Spa offers a complete range of facial and body treatments specifically designed to rejuvenate the mind, body and spirit.
