Zaha Hadid Designed ME Dubai to open in The Opus in 2020

The much-awaited property gem designed by the late Zaha Hadid is finally set to open its doors in Dubai in February 2020. Situated in the heart of the Burj Khalifa District, the hotel is the first ME by Meliá hotel in the Middle East.

The five-star Dubai property is the only hotel in the world to be fully designed, inside and outside, by the late Zaha Hadid and is located in her mesmerizing The Opus development by Omniyat.

ME Dubai is designed as such bringing the contemporary art and fashion scene of Europe to the Middle East. Bringing together music, art, design, fashion, ME by Meli has a unique connection with the communities in which it operates.

Comprising 74 rooms and 19 suites (including the Passion Suite, Personality Suite, the Vibe Room and the legendary ultra-luxurious ‘ME Suite’), the hotel also includes 96 serviced apartments across three floors of expressive Hadid design. The property has a spacious pool and wet deck overlooking the Dubai skyline, as well as a 7,000-metre square gym, and spa.

In addition to three ME Dubai owned F&B outlets, The Opus will offer guests a choice of 15 restaurants, including the first Roka restaurant in the region, a stylish contemporary Japanese robatayaki concept from London.

ME by Meli is set to become the social central point of Dubai’s dynamic cultural scene. ME by Meli also includes in itself the largest nightclub space in Dubai.

Based on food, events, secret hotspots, fashion and the latest in cultural trends across the emirate, the stay of every guest has been made personalized by the AURA Manager.

Stefan Viard, general manager of ME Dubai, said: “ME Dubai brings a new dimension to Dubai that will delight status seekers, culturalists and the creative elite across visitors and residents alike. The new property will act as a cultural epicenter for those looking for a personalised approach, unforgettable experiences, unparalleled gastronomy and exceptional service. An integral part of the brand will be to add a personal touch to all experiences, going above-and-beyond the average concierge service. To be putting the final touches to our much-anticipated offering and watching the mesmerising Zaha Hadid vision come to life is exciting, and we looking forward to marking a new decade by welcoming guests to ME Dubai.”
