MÖVENPICK Hotel and Apartments Bur Dubai has completed a stylish refurbishment of its 255 guest rooms, the expansive lobby, the Fountain restaurant and Café lounge, providing the five-star property with a refreshingly contemporary image.
“We are all extremely pleased and excited about the new look and feel of the hotel, Our goal was to renovate the interior decoration, furniture and fittings to introduce a fresh and contemporary ‘lifestyle’ look which will appeal to the local community and international traveller,” said general manager Robert Barker.
Principal designer Martin Wojnowski said the new design makes the hotel look more fresh and home-like by avoiding sharp details and finishes typical to commercial spaces. “I think the modern traveller is seeking the feeling of comfort and understated elegance,” he said.
“I believe that the hotel now has one of the most guest-friendly lobbies in Dubai – it is contemporary but comfortable and relaxing, creating an atmosphere of harmony away from the city’s hustle and bustle.”
To illustrate the point, the renovated lobby mirrors guests’ living rooms. Traditional furniture is upholstered in contemporary fabrics, traditionally-made carpet is adorned with modern patterns, and lighting allows for different mood and ambient options, complemented by creative artworks and accessories.
Alongside the 255 newly appointed rooms and suites and added privacy and amenities of the exclusive executive floors, 57 stylish apartments are fully equipped with entertainment systems and kitchens. The hotel offers six eclectic restaurants comprising the Fountain offering international all day dining, Café lounge, an ideal venue for afternoon tea, a contemporary yet traditional North-Indian restaurant Chutneys, the Lebanese restaurant Fakhreldine, an English-style pub Somerset’s and the Pool House rooftop bar.
Other facilities include a fitness centre and a temperature- controlled rooftop pool and the Office, a totally new and unique concept combining the business centre, guest services, a gift shop and a beauty salon.
