A new 500m-plus Dubai hotel and branded real estate development will open in 2030 with the “world’s highest outdoor pool”.
Corinthia Hotels and Dubai General Properties announced their partnership on the landmark hotel and residential development.
The skyline-defining structure will comprise a traditional hotel and branded residences concept.

Set within a two-tower structure on Sheikh Zayed Road near the Museum of the Future, the development will rise to more than 500m and rank among the world’s tallest buildings.
It will feature a distinctive contemporary architectural style, conjoined by a cantilevered sky lobby extending more than 200m above the ground.
Simon Casson, CEO of Corinthia Hotels, said: “We are proud and honoured to be bringing the Corinthia brand to Dubai, a city I know and love from my decade-long residence here.
“This architectural gem honours the ambitious vision set forth by the inspired leadership of Dubai and is made possible by our valued partnership with Dubai General Properties.
“Both hotel and residences will be defining in their design and level of aspirational luxury; matched only by the elevated, intuitive service levels delivered by the people of Corinthia, with the Spirit of Corinthia.”
The new development will showcase the five-star luxury Corinthia Dubai, alongside Corinthia-branded serviced penthouses and apartments.
Guests and residents will have exclusive access to the Corinthia Wellness spa, with indoor and outdoor pools, cutting-edge fitness equipment, personal trainers and a team of health and wellbeing experts.
The development will be accessed by four distinct entry points enabling fluid movement of traffic.
Dubai General Properties has appointed AtkinsRéalis as lead architect and engineering consultants. The project will be managed by Corinthia Group’s QP company, with a targeted completion by 2030.
Reuben Xuereb, CEO of QP said: “We are honoured to be helping deliver this game-changing project for Dubai General Properties and Corinthia. In constant pursuit of excellence, we treat our clients as they will ultimately treat their guests.
“Prioritising every aspect of their development experience, we offer seamless communication and management, exceeding expectations in service and delivery.
“We have pioneered the project concierge service, bringing an integrated approach to design and development with our dynamic and capable team ensuring every detail is expertly managed.”
With a total built-up area expected to be 330,000sq m, the towers will provide views of the Sheikh Zayed Road skyline, Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab, and Jumeirah Beach.
It will also offer the world’s highest outdoor sky pool, soaring more than 500m with panoramic 360-degree views.
Jassim Al Ali, Managing Director of Dubai General Properties, said: “It is a true privilege to introduce this bold and visionary statement to our city, right where our journey in property development began.
“Dubai stands as a pioneer in luxury tourism, and we are thrilled to unveil an innovative new concept that not only elevates our hospitality standards but also captivates both our people and the world.”
