Dubai: Shaikh Zayed Road will continue to host the “world’s tallest hotel”, with the opening this week of the Gevora built by the Al Attar Group.
The 75-floor structure stands at a height of 356 metres (1,167.98 feet) and has 528 rooms. It is located right near the DIFC cluster and with the Emirates Towers as neighbours.
Gevora and the Al Attar Group hope to take over the world’s tallest hotel mantle from the JW Marriott Marquis Hotel just down Shaikh Zayed Road, which soars to 1,165 feet. The property opened in 2012 and has 1,608 rooms.
Dubai has two other entrants in the tallest hotel stakes, in Rose Rayhann, which stands tall at 1,093 feetk and the Burj Al Arab, at 1,053 feet.
The Al Attar Group has multiple high-rise interests along Shaikh Zayed Road.
