The Ritz-Carlton, Dubai
Svelte suites in a sophisticated setting



Nestled in the heart of the Marina district on Jumeirah Beach, the Ritz-Carlton Dubai indulges pleasure seekers with a serenading blend of Mediterranean resort styling with warm Arabian hospitality. Here plush rooms and suites underscored with signature gold accents, each with a private terrace or patio, overlook the palm-filled gardens and Arabian Gulf. Nine restaurants, ranging from homey Asian dining at Blue Jade to the tented Bedouin-village-like local specialties of Amaseena plus the nightcap-inducing comforts of the Library Bar serve as the perfect culinary complement to the hotel’s extensive spa menu.
