Fortifying its pre-eminent position in Abu Dhabi’s thriving tourism and hospitality sector – Rotana, one of the leading hotel management companies in the region with hotels across the Middle East, Africa and Turkey, officially inaugurated the highly anticipated Pearl Rotana hotel at the popular business district, Capital Centre. On Tuesday, 17th April 2018, the inauguration ceremony was held in the presence of Mr. Mohammed Bin Juan Al Badie Al Dhaeri of Al Badie Group, Mr. Nasser Al Nowais, Chairman of Rotana, the top Executives from both companies and honourable guests.

As part of a growing portfolio of properties, Pearl Rotana is a modern-designed hotel located in the hub of the city, across from Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC), 20 minutes from the airport and in close proximity to all the main attractions. The hotel is the ultimate place to stay for an immersive experience whilst exploring the UAE capital.

Mr. Mohammed Al Badie Bin Youan Al Dhaeri, Chairman of Al Badie Group, said, “With its solid business growth and strong portfolio, Rotana has established its name as the bellwether of the region’s hospitality industry and it gives us immense pleasure to partner with the company. This partnership will benefit our shareholders and the local economy and strengthen our position in the domestic and international markets. We look forward to further collaboration with Rotana in the future to achieve our shared vision of contributing to the sustainable growth of the UAE while thriving in our business.”

The 315 light, modern rooms and suites have been designed for guests to feel relaxed and comfortable throughout the entire stay experience. All the rooms offer high-speed wireless Internet, complimentary coffee and tea making facilities, daily local newspapers and IDD telephones, together with deluxe beds for maximum comfort. In-room flat-screen TVs come with multi and satellite channels, suitable for all visitors.

“As a homegrown brand, the opening of Pearl Rotana is a remarkable achievement for Rotana,” explains Mr. Nasser Al Nowais, Chairman of Rotana. Following the recent announcement from the Department of Culture and Tourism (DTC Abu Dhabi) – an impressive 15,2% hotel guest increase in February this year to the capital shows a positive and progressive growth in the thriving tourism sector - our property will offer the UAE capital a receptive hotel that brings added value and options to visitors. With its ideal location, we are confident that it will be a great addition to the area for global travellers as well as residents - offering contemporary-designed rooms and facilities, high-standard service and a variety of dining options”

One of Pearl Rotana’s signature restaurants, The Warehouse wine & tapas bar, opened its doors on 16th April – offering Mediterranean inspired cuisine and unforgettable after-work deals. The latest venue is set to become the favorite entertainment and nightlife spot in Abu Dhabi, with its elegant interior, sharing style platters and lively ambience.
