By GlobalDataFeaturing 208 guestrooms, the new voco hotel is located near Sheikh Zayed Road and in Jumeirah Lake Towers business district. It is also situated close to the Dubai Expo 2020 site.
Besides the guestrooms, the hotel will have dining venues, meeting rooms, gym, pool and a lounge area. The offerings are intended to suit both the business and leisure travellers.
IHG Middle East and Africa Development vice-president Matthew Tripolone said: “Since launching globally in 2018, voco has enjoyed rapid growth with multiple signings across the Middle East, and we are proud to introduce our second voco to Dubai, which is a priority market for us in the region.
“The brand offers a simplified conversion process, making it quick and easy for owners of high-quality independent hotels to become part of IHG’s system and drive higher returns thereafter.”
In February this year, IHG signed a management agreement in partnership with NR Greenwood Construction for the Staybridge Suites Bengaluru Thanisandra in India.
