As construction around the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) continues at pace on the 408 room Aloft hotel and the iconic Capital Gate,
which will house the landmark Hyatt at Capital Centre hotel, ADNEC has
revealed how the two hotels together will offer the complete hospitality
product for its visitors and exhibitors.
When it is fully open, the Aloft Hotel will have one of the largest hotel
capacities in the UAE Capital with 408 rooms, and it will target primarily
young business travellers by offering a stylish and contemporary product
to its guests. Hyatt at Capital Centre, a 189-room hotel, has been developed
specifically for the Capital Centre development and will welcome travellers
accustomed to high levels of service, design and innovation.
Soaring at 160 metres above the ground, this gravity-defying building leans a staggering
18 degrees and is set to become a world-famous landmark for Abu Dhabi city.
The architectural feats that define this project are combined with elegant
interior design concepts to create a refined hotel guest experience.
Simon Horgan, ADNEC Group CEO, said: “We are creating the world’s first
fully connected exhibition lifestyle destination and it is absolutely critical
which hotels are located on-site. In Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide
and Hyatt Hotels & Resorts we have chosen two of the industry-leading companies
to help drive this vision forward. Although targeting very different markets,
both companies are bringing very high quality products and service to Abu
Dhabi, which will reinforce ADNEC’s position as the region’s leading exhibition
centre and greatly add to the hotel portfolio of the city.”
Aloft will capitalise on growing worldwide recognition as one of the industry’s
most compelling lifestyle brands targeting the niche of forward thinking
individuals. The new Hyatt at Capital Centre will add authenticity, style
and luxury to the region while enabling all guests, whether travelling
for business or leisure, to unwind and gather in celebration feeling productive
and revitalised.
Stephan Vanden Auweele, Aloft Hotel General Manager said: “The Aloft Hotel
will be something new for Abu Dhabi. We don’t classify ourselves as 5,
4 or 3 star hotel because conventional hotel grade systems do not fit the
Aloft concept. We have the ultimate product in terms of technology and
convenience and we offer a distinctive and unique experience. Aloft is
not about a specific age-group, or nationality, or category, rather it
is about a certain lifestyle.”
Commenting on the forthcoming arrival of Hyatt at Capital Centre, Thierry
Bertin, Hyatt Hotels & Resorts, Vice President of Sales and Marketing,
International Operations, said: “Hyatt at Capital Centre is set to become
a landmark hotel on the Abu Dhabi skyline and a leading hotel in the region.
It will showcase exceptional design and offer memorable experiences to
Abu Dhabi’s visitors all while providing our guests sweeping panoramas
of the capital through its location within the iconic Capital Gate building.”
The Aloft and the Hyatt at Capital Centre are directly linked to the exhibition
centre and will be 20 minutes away from Downtown Abu Dhabi and 15 minutes
from the Abu Dhabi International Airport. Although they will serve mainly
ADNEC <http://www.adnec.ae> visitors and exhibitors, they are also expected
to become a regular destination for the residents of Abu Dhabi.
