Dubai is set to welcome a striking new landmark this November with the grand opening of Ciel Dubai Marina, part of IHG’s Vignette Collection. Standing at an impressive 377 meters and spanning 82 floors, the record-breaking property will officially become the world’s tallest hotel, reshaping the city’s luxury hospitality scene.
A New Icon on Dubai’s Skyline
Ciel Dubai Marina is designed by award-winning architects Norr and developed by The First Group. The tower’s sleek “eye of the needle” silhouette is already turning heads across Dubai’s glittering skyline. With 1,004 guest rooms and suites, all featuring floor-to-ceiling glass windows, the hotel offers sweeping views of Palm Jumeirah, the Arabian Gulf, and the city’s iconic skyscrapers.
“Ciel represents a landmark development that reinforces Dubai’s position as a global hub for tourism and business travel,” said Rob Burns, CEO of The First Group. “Standing at 377 meters, the all-hotel tower will redefine upper-upscale hospitality through striking design, world-class amenities, and breathtaking vistas.”
Haitham Mattar, Managing Director of IHG Hotels & Resorts for India, Middle East & Africa, added: “The highly anticipated November opening of Ciel Dubai Marina, Vignette Collection, is the pinnacle of our vision for the brand—unique luxury hotels offering extraordinary guest experiences.”
Culinary Experiences Above the Clouds
The property will house eight distinctive dining destinations, each blending immersive design with world-class cuisine.
- West 13 brings the warmth of the Mediterranean, with influences from Italy, Greece, Spain, France, and Latin America, served in a lively open-kitchen setting.
- East 14 offers a buffet-style sensory journey through Asia, with live ramen, pho, sushi, dim sum, and rich Indian curries.
- Risen Café & Bakery, a homegrown UAE favorite, will serve artisanal pastries, barista coffee, and locally inspired comfort food.
- Tattu Dubai, the award-winning modern Asian concept from the UK, will launch a multi-level destination within the hotel. Highlights include Tattu Restaurant & Bar on level 74, the world’s highest infinity pool at Tattu Sky Pool on level 76, and the glamorous Tattu Sky Lounge on level 81, promising 360° rooftop views with cocktails, music, and unforgettable ambiance.
Luxury Beyond Dining
Beyond its culinary offerings, Ciel Dubai Marina is designed as a complete luxury lifestyle destination. Guests can rejuvenate at a sky-high spa on the 61st floor, offering panoramic views alongside transformative treatments. A 24/7 state-of-the-art gym will complement the wellness offerings, while complimentary transfers provide access to the Soluna Beach Club on Palm Jumeirah, where guests can relax poolside or on the private beach.
Families are also catered to with a Kids Club, Splash Pad, child-friendly menus, and tailored amenities. Business travelers will benefit from the Nest Executive Lounge on the 16th floor and flexible meeting spaces with cutting-edge technology.
A Gateway to Dubai Marina
Ciel’s prime location places it at the heart of Dubai Marina, with direct access to the Marina boardwalk, water taxis, Dubai Marina Mall, and metro connections. Guests will also be just minutes from Palm Jumeirah, Bluewaters Island, The Walk at JBR, and Ain Dubai, the world’s tallest observation wheel.
Managed by The First Group Hospitality, the hotel seamlessly integrates Dubai’s vibrant lifestyle with global luxury standards.
Redefining Hospitality in Dubai
As the tallest hotel in the world, Ciel Dubai Marina is more than just an architectural achievement—it’s a symbol of Dubai’s ambition to continually push the boundaries of design, tourism, and hospitality. With its record-breaking height, rooftop infinity pool, and a portfolio of culinary and lifestyle experiences, the property is expected to draw global attention when it opens its doors in November 2025.For more information, visit vignettecollectionhotels.com/cieldubai or follow @cieldubaimarinahotel on Instagram.
