Dubai is preparing to welcome yet another record-breaking marvel to its glittering skyline with the opening of Ciel Dubai Marina, Vignette Collection, in November 2025. At an astonishing 377 metres tall, this will officially become the world's tallest hotel, surpassing the current record holder, Gevora Hotel — and it has since been certified by Guinness World Records.
A Sky-High Landmark in Dubai Marina
The futuristic glass tower rises 82 floors above Dubai Marina, one of the city's most vibrant waterfront districts. The hotel houses 1,004 rooms and suites, all with floor-to-ceiling glass windows providing sweeping views of the Arabian Gulf, Palm Jumeirah, and Downtown Dubai's skyline.
Room rates start at AED 2,400 per night for deluxe suites, while premium three-bedroom suites with lounge access reach AED 4,305 per night.
Managed by The First Group Hospitality and operated under InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) as part of the prestigious Vignette Collection, the hotel places guests within walking distance of Dubai Marina's shopping, dining, and entertainment hotspots.
Record-Breaking Attractions Inside
Ciel will not only be the world's tallest hotel but also feature a series of record-setting amenities:
- The World's Highest Infinity Pool — on the 76th floor at 310 metres above ground, offering a 360-degree view of Dubai and surpassing the previous record held by Address Beach Resort. - The World's Highest Club — on level 81, creating a nightlife experience unmatched anywhere else on the planet. - A Rooftop Observation Deck — glass-wrapped, delivering panoramic views across the entire emirate.
Dining Elevated to New Heights
Food lovers will be spoiled for choice with a mix of homegrown and international concepts spanning eight dining venues:
- Tattu Dubai — the award-winning Asian restaurant spans three levels (restaurant on 74, sky pool on 76, sky lounge on 81), including a sky pool bar and a luxury lounge. - Risen Café & Artisanal Bakery — serving breakfast, fresh baked goods, and all-day dining with locally sourced ingredients. - West 13 — a Mediterranean-inspired eatery featuring live pasta stations, Greek gyros, tacos, and mezze. - East 14 — a buffet-style Asian experience with sushi, dim sum, ramen, pho, curries, and more.
Wellness and Business in the Sky
Ciel features a luxury spa on the 61st floor, offering treatments with jaw-dropping views of the city below. A 24/7 state-of-the-art gym caters to fitness enthusiasts, while complimentary transfers to Soluna Beach Club at Palm Jumeirah are available for in-house guests.
Business travellers will benefit from Nest, the hotel's sleek executive lounge on the 16th floor. High-tech meeting rooms and flexible workspaces overlooking the Marina make it a compelling hub for productivity.
Dubai's Next Global Hospitality Icon
Rob Burns, CEO of The First Group, said:
> "Ciel represents a landmark development that reinforces Dubai's position as a global hub for tourism and business travel. Standing at 377 meters, the all-hotel tower will redefine upper-upscale hospitality with innovation, luxury, and breathtaking vistas."
When it opens this November, Ciel Dubai Marina won't just be another luxury hotel — it will be a world-first experience, setting new records in hospitality, dining, and design.
