History
The Chedi Al Bait, Sharjah opened in December 2018 in the Heart of Sharjah, created from five former heritage houses once owned by influential Emirati families - among them Bait Eissa Al Midfa and the Ibrahim Al Midfa house. Preserved historic structures were combined with new compounds to pay homage to the culture of the United Arab Emirates.
Managed by General Hotel Management (GHM) and developed by Shurooq, the Sharjah Investment and Development Authority, the hotel offers Emirati-inspired rooms and suites in an Asian-minimalist style with an Arabian ambience, and was named to Travel + Leisure's 2020 list of the best new hotels in the world - one of only two Middle East properties on it. In 2023, GHM added the Serai Wing, Bait Khalid bin Ibrahim, a two-house extension restored from the century-old home of a pearl merchant and designed by ANARCHITECT, growing the property from 53 to 65 keys.
