THE five-star Bonnington Hotel and Apartments brings a brand new landmark of heritage and style in the midst of Jumeirah Lakes Towers along Sheikh Zayed Road. The only European family-owned and operated five-star hotel in Dubai, the Bonnington opened doors in May 2010 and offers 208 non-smoking rooms and suites, 272 luxurious serviced hotel apartments, six restaurants and bars, four conference suites, a leisure deck on the 11th floor with infinity pool, state of the art gym, pool bar, Jacuzzi, steam, sauna as well as hairdressing salons for ladies and gentlemen.
Located just opposite Dubai Marina and less than 35 miles away from Dubai International Airport, the hotel features three floors of Business Club rooms and suites. Guests can benefit from a wealth of value-added services including complimentary airport pick-up, free wireless Internet, and access to the Bonnington Business Club Lounge.
The Bonnington truly features an option for every traveller, whether a guest is looking for a one night’s stay in a hotel room, or a year’s stay in a luxurious apartment. The residences range from one- to three-bedroom apartments and come complete with fully equipped kitchens and spacious living areas. Residents additionally benefit from their own private entrance, a dedicated reception area, round-the-clock security, regular housekeeping service, grocery delivery service, allocated parking spaces and full use of all the hotel facilities. Handcrafted fixtures and the highest quality furnishings, including plasma TVs, DVD players and the latest wireless technology, provide an environment any five-star hotel would be proud of. The hotel is only 40 minutes by car from Abu Dhabi, so guests also have easy access to a number of business and leisure destinations in Abu Dhabi.

A variety of food and beverage offerings are available including the Authors’ Lounge serving gourmet coffees, aromatic teas and snacks. In the evenings, an open fireplace adds to the atmosphere. The Cavendish Restaurant brings the best British-European classical dishes presented with a modern twist incorporating the exotic elements of the Middle East.
Healey’s Bar and Terrace invite you to relax and unwind in stylish surroundings after a long day’s work, and offer a fine selection of beverages and snacks and the recently opened McGettigan’s Irish Pub, located just next to the main hotel tower, is Dubai’s first Irish family-owned and operated Irish Pub. BokaBento, an Asian-Latin American fusion restaurant complete with live kitchen, will open doors early 2011.
One of the most stunning features of this property is its pool bar on the leisure deck located on the 11th floor, that offers refreshing drinks, exquisite snacks and also affords guests the opportunity to relax with a shisha by the poolside with stunning views over the Jumeirah Lakes and the new Dubai skyline.
While Bonnington may be a relatively new name to Dubai, it has an interesting 100-year history, dating back to 1907, when the Bonnington Bloomsbury first opened its doors in central London. Today, the Bonnington Group is based in London and covers a wide spectrum of activities ranging from the hospitality industry to property investment, development and real estate. As it is not part of a large international hotel chain, guests and visitors will always benefit from the family atmosphere during their stay. Yet, as the Bonnington is part of Worldhotels Deluxe Collection, guests are assured international standards and quality.
