Elegant décor and contemporary interiors are accentuated with bespoke elements such as the hotel’s grand staircase, which is embellished with gold detailing that encircles an exquisite chandelier.

Inspired by the Arabian palm tree, the chandelier is gilded with shimmering crystals that gracefully illuminate the ground floor of the hotel.

The intimate lobby features plush lounge areas and a tucked-away library lit by an artful fireplace.

The corridors and gathering spaces are adorned with a thoughtfully curated art collection featuring contemporary artwork and paintings.

The 264 lavishly appointed guestrooms and 26 elegant suites offer luxuriant comfort, exceptional amenities and expansive views of Palm Jumeirah, the Arabian Gulf and the Dubai skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows.

The St. Regis Dubai, the Palm features the renowned hallmarks of the St. Regis brand, including St. Regis Butler Service, which allows each guest to customise their stay according to personal tastes and preferences.

The hotel is a vibrant lifestyle destination with a diverse selection of restaurants, bars and lounges.

The iconic St. Regis Bar extends the legacy of the King Cole Bar at the brand’s flagship property at 55th and Fifth Ave. in New York City, where the world-renowned Bloody Mary cocktail was born in 1934.

Guests can also access the Palm Monorail from the mall for a scenic route to the landmarks of Palm Jumeirah.
