Dubai has added another remarkable milestone to its skyline: the world’s tallest hotel, Ciel Dubai Marina, has officially opened its doors. Soaring 377 metres into the sky across 82 floors, this striking architectural statement from the Vignette Collection by IHG has redefined luxury hospitality in the Middle East.
At a time when Dubai tourism is booming—with 18.7 million international visitors recorded last year and over $2 billion in new tourism investment—Ciel represents the city’s unapologetic commitment to luxury, record-breaking design, and futuristic experience.
A Vertical Masterpiece in Dubai Marina
Designed by NORR Group architects, Ciel Dubai Marina is a needle-shaped tower built around one central promise: height. The entire experience is elevated—literally and figuratively.
Every guest room and suite features floor-to-ceiling glass, offering uninterrupted views of:
- Palm Jumeirah
- The Dubai Skyline
- The Arabian Gulf
The building includes vertically stacked internal gardens, complex airflow engineering, and wind tunnel-tested architecture that supports sustainability and structural stability at extreme height.
Incredible Sky-High Experiences
At Level 76, guests will find one of the world’s highest infinity pools, suspended above the city with panoramic ocean and skyline views.
Even higher, Level 81 houses a dramatic observation deck, promising sweeping vistas from horizon to horizon—one of the most breathtaking hospitality experiences anywhere in Dubai.
Eight Dining Venues to Explore
Ciel Dubai Marina offers eight culinary destinations, including:
- West 13 – Mediterranean classics, artisanal pasta, gyros, mezze, and coastal flavors.
- East 14 – A vibrant Asian buffet with sushi, dim sum, ramen, pho, and curries.
- Risen Café & Artisanal Bakery – Pastries, specialty brews, and all-day casual dining.
However, the jewel of the food and entertainment offering is Tattu Dubai, a modern Asian concept born in the UK and now elevated to new heights.
