Presenting 13 Meeting Suites and Two Ballrooms, the Hotel Boasts State-Of-The-Art Meeting and Conference Facilities to Suit Every Need

Dubai, United Arab Emirates - 11 February 2015 - With Dubai hosting the upcoming Expo2020, it will serve as a global hub for innovation, bringing together people and organizations from all around the world. The need for conference facilities to facilitate the preparations in the region is at an all-time high. Hyatt Regency Dubai Creek Heights, launching in March 2015, is set to be the definitive destination for meetings and conference tourism in the region, as well as internationally. Strategically situated overlooking the iconic Dubai Creek, the 464-room luxurious hotel will feature extensive conferencing and bridal facilities.

Whether the event is on a small or large scale, business-related or social, Hyatt Regency Dubai Creek Heights' expert team has mastered the art of putting ideas into action and will plan every detail with flawless execution to ensure the event is a success. Versatility, flexibility and connectivity have been the main priority when designing the function space to ensure a host of customizable options to suit every event organizer's personalized needs.

An entire area of the hotel has been specifically designated for events, with options for a series of individual private meetings, allotting the entire floor for one specific event or creating a natural flow of guests seamlessly moving between the larger ballrooms and smaller meeting suites. The venues have their own private entrance for non-residential guests, which is perfect for weddings as well as high-profile events where extra security is a necessity.

When choosing to host an event at one of Hyatt Regency Dubai Creek Heights' 13 meeting suites or two spectacular ballrooms, there will be a dedicated event planner to guide guests from the start to the end, ensuring all guests receive customized space, schedule and exceptional catering. Guests choosing to celebrate their wedding can relax and let their special day be handled by the professional associates down to the last detail of flowers and music. Each of the venues are well-appointed with state-of-the-art technology infrastructure, offering high-speed Internet connectivity while advanced lighting capabilities in each venue meet the demand for hi-tech meetings and social events.  

"Hyatt Regency Dubai Creek Heights will provide a welcome place for convention goers and guests choosing to host social events alike. With the proximity of the hotel to the trade district of Dubai as well as the idyllic views of the iconic Dubai Creek, the location is perfect for local and international events," said Mr. Mathieu Greppo, General Manager, Hyatt Regency Dubai Creek Heights.

Guests looking to host more high-end luxurious private events such as exclusive launches or government meetings can consider using one of the two Royal Suites, which comprise the top two floors of the hotel. One Royal Suite on the 34th floor has a 360-degree outdoor terrace with unparalleled views while the other on the top floor has a 7-metre high dome ceiling to add to the feeling of style and space.

Apart from the ballrooms and meeting suites, the hotel also presents the concept of a residential-style multi-event enclave; Al Manzil, which is accessible through its own private entrance. The advanced audio-visual technology, and team of professionals delivering impeccable service and culinary excellence makes it a perfect venue to host both business meetings and private gatherings.

Based on the concept of a private mansion, Al Manzil is made up of a collection of 6 individually-styled rooms (The Loft, The Library, The Living Room, The Lounge, The Gallery and The Atelier), serviced by two interactive, open kitchens (The Kitchen). Guests can choose to conduct board meetings in The Gallery and advance to The Lounge for refreshments, relaxation and informal networking. Training sessions can be conducted in The Atelier and The Living Room is perfect for interviews. True to the Hyatt Regency Dubai Creek Heights style, every room is extremely different, but ties together to bring a harmonious, perfect flow.
