Dubai is known for its “firsts.” Later this year, a new project will be added to the record books of this luxurious land. CNN reported that a new hotel project is being built in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), and is being led by real estate company Immo Prestige Limited.
Ciel Dubai Marina (also known as Ciel Tower) is expected to become the tallest hotel in the world when completed, with an impressive height of 365 meters. This will be 65 meters taller than the Eiffel Tower and beat the record of 356 meters held by the Gevora Hotel, also in Dubai.
The outstanding height of Ciel Dubai Marina promises to turn it into a new symbol of Dubai city, while giving visitors extremely unique and impressive experiences.
The 365m high "sky" tower, 82 floors with 1,000 rooms, offers a panoramic view of all the famous landmarks
At a cost of £388 million (about 12.6 billion VND), the hotel will have 1,042 rooms, including 150 luxury rooms, spread over 82 floors of the building. Ciel Tower is known to have a total of 104 floors.
According to CNN, the project is built on a triangular plot of land in the Dubai Marina district with an area of only 2,500 square meters - quite small for a building of such height. Mr. Yahya Jan - the building's design engineer told CNN in 2021: "The land has been very narrowed. It's like what you would face in Manhattan (USA) or London (UK). There are a lot of restrictions but we have to make it successful."
According to developer The First Group, the hotel will offer 360-degree views of the city, coastline and other landmarks. Guests can also enjoy the view from the rooftop pool and restaurants. Mr. Jan said the project will also help save energy by using 25% less electricity for air conditioning than is typical for similar buildings.
Dubai is famous for its incredibly tall buildings.
Ciel Tower, officially started construction in 2023. This is an ambitious project with a grand scale, promising to become a new symbol for the city of Dubai. To create a solid foundation for this 365 meter high building, a large amount of construction materials were used, including nearly 12,000 cubic meters of concrete poured into the foundation. This is a huge amount of concrete, equivalent to about 50 Olympic swimming pools. More than 2,700 tons of steel were also used to reinforce the foundation, ensuring the safety and stability of the building.
The large amount of building materials used shows the scale and complexity of the Ciel Dubai Marina project. Construction on the building is underway and is expected to be completed by the end of 2024.
Ciel Dubai Marina promises to be an impressive architectural work, contributing to beautifying the appearance of Dubai city. The construction of the building is attracting the attention of many residents and tourists, and promises to bring new and unique experiences when completed.
