Ajman, UAE – R Hotels announces the appointment of Samir Arora as cluster general manager of its three Dubai properties: The Retreat Palm Dubai MGallery by Sofitel, Ramada by Wyndham Downtown Dubai, and ibis Styles Jumeira Dubai.

Arora was the general manager of both Ramada by Wyndham Downtown Dubai and Ramada Hotel & Suites by Wyndham Dubai before moving to The Retreat Palm Dubai to head its pre-opening in 2017. A seasoned hotelier with more than 25 years of industry experience, he is now in charge of the overall operations of the group’s three hotels in the Dubai with a total inventory of 627 keys. 

Sumair Tariq, managing director of R Hotels, commented: “We congratulate Samir on his new role. He has been an invaluable member of our team and has a proven track record including successfully overseeing the pre-opening of the first holistic wellness resort in the region. R Hotels has full confidence that he will effectively lead the three properties in delivering top-quality hospitality experience to every guest, while boosting occupancy and revenue.”

Commenting on his appointment, Arora said: “My aim as cluster general manager is to reinforce the positioning of the hotels based on their main target markets and segments. As a wellness resort, The Retreat Palm Dubai focuses on health and wellbeing offers; Ramada Downtown Dubai highlights its prime location and proximity to the iconic Burj Khalifa; and ibis Styles Jumeira, a mid-market hotel, places emphasis on providing best value for money given its location, room size, and quality of service.”
