Although here we’re not talking about one of the tallest developments in the world, The Lana is currently one of the most exquisite and is part of the Dorchester Collection hotel chain, which operates some of the most exclusive hotels in Europe and the United States.
The interconnected architecture of the building, designed by London firm Foster + Partners, is reflected in the Marasi Bay Marina, a new, cosmopolitan area of the city by the seafront. Each of the 225 rooms has a terrace and floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning views of the city. In the Marina Duplex, Marina Terrace, Marina Royal or Lana Royal suites, the refinement becomes even more exquisite. The interior spaces, designed by the famous Parisian design duo Gilles & Boissier, are welcoming, contemporary but equally elegant, distinctive and discreet.

The decorative singularity of The Lana is also underpinned by a unique collection of more than 50 works of art, commissioned from local and international artists. Each piece is the product of a captivating narrative, reflecting the particular vision of the artist and its setting within the hotel.
However, in addition to these majestic attributes, one of the most sublime attractions of this new hotel complex, which only opened in February this year, is the Dior spa, being the French brand’s first in the United Arab Emirates. The five treatment rooms and Couple’s Suite, located on the 29th and second-from-last floors of the hotel, offer a vast range of treatments and wellness programmes.
