The location of the Armani Luxury Hotel Dubai is indicative of the unique experience that awaits all guests who are lucky enough to enjoy the accommodation and facilities offered here. The name Armani has always been synonymous with a sophisticated design and style. The Armani Luxury Hotel Dubai was to be the first hotel designed by Georgio Armani, in collaboration with leading property developer Emaar Properties. This collaboration has resulted in a hotel where style meets luxury and sophistication meets comfort. In every element of design, the hotel remains unique with the Armani flair. When Armani conceived the idea of the Armani Luxury Hotel collection he envisaged properties where he would entertain his family and friends. He wanted hotels that embodied beauty, elegance, and grace whilst defining superior service, immaculate design and incomparable luxury. When one sees the Armani Luxury Hotel Dubai it is immediately evident that his vision of luxurious beauty was achieved with this, his first hotel.
