The new Aloft Hotel City Centre Deira has been announced as Awards for Hospitality, Experience and Design, (AHEAD) MEA finalist in the Event Spaces category.

Located in the historic heart of Dubai, the hotel brings a fresh approach to the traditional landscape offering a lively in-hotel social scene, a vibrant interior design palette and fully integrated technology.

The 304 bedroom four-star facility is the Middle East’s first cinema-themed hotel, featuring a climate-controlled rooftop cinema and several bespoke suites specifically designed around movie-related topics such as Hollywood, Bollywood and super-heroes.

The AHEAD awards celebrate the most outstanding new hospitality projects in the Middle East.

The winners will be revealed at a gala dinner in November.
