Dubai, United Arab Emirates · JW Marriott · Core Luxury
When the second tower opened in February 2013, JW Marriott Marquis Dubai, a pair of 355-metre, 72-storey towers in Business Bay, became the world's tallest hotel, passing the Rose Rayhaan by Rotana. Archgroup International designed the date-palm silhouette for the Emirates Group, and its 1,608 rooms make it one of the largest hotels on earth. The complex was first conceived as a single 77-storey tower, before the Business Bay canal extension forced a redesign into twin towers.

About JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai
- JW Marriott Marquis Dubai has 1,608 rooms in twin 355-metre, 72-storey towers in Business Bay, and held the Guinness record for the world's tallest hotel on completion in 2013.
- The towers were inspired by the silhouette of the date palm, a symbol of UAE heritage, and designed by Archgroup International for the Emirates Group.
- The complex was first conceived as a single 77-storey tower before the Business Bay canal extension forced a redesign into twin towers.
The setting
JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai rises in Business Bay and upon completion in 2012 stood at 355 metres as the world's tallest hotel — a superlative that reflects Business Bay's ambition to create a vertical city unto itself along a dredged canal extension of Dubai Creek just south of the Burj Khalifa. The Dubai Fountain and Museum of the Future are twenty minutes by taxi; Dubai Mall, the Burj Khalifa, and Dubai Opera are twenty-one to twenty-two minutes away. The hotel's scale commands the Business Bay skyline and its upper floors deliver an unobstructed sight line directly toward the world's tallest tower.
