California Dreamin’ in the heart of Dubai

Inside Paramount Hotel Midtown

From the moment you walk through the property’s revolving doors, you are whisked away into vivid expressions of Hollywood glamour, with dark green velvet seating, sleek gold accessories, and the signature props; the Producer and Director chairs and bold, poster-sized framed wall art, emblematic of a true movie production set. With a stay at Paramount Hotel Midtown, you are the cast and definitely the star of the show.

Feel good vibes, and restful moments within one of the 281 rooms and suites the hotel houses, five refreshing, bespoke dining options, the luxurious 5-star Pause Spa Chateau Berger, and a rooftop infinity pool to rival any of the others in town, get ready to immerse yourself in an experience as chic as you are! The red carpet is rolled out the minute you arrive, with an express check-in from a warm and welcoming team.

The Paramount Hotel Midtown experience is curated for the young-at-heart who loves to be at the center of it all. Perfectly positioned in Business Bay Dubai, just a stone’s throw from Sheikh Zayed Road, the must-see attractions around the Downtown and DIFC districts including Burj Khalifa, Museum of the Future, and the plethora of retail experiences available at Dubai Mall, Paramount Hotel boasts mid-century styling, set in a space that lavishes with opulently themed décor.  

Superbly appointed rooms with a touch of Hollywood

Soak up that cool, Californian style from your very own room selection of the aptly named: Scene Room, Family Scene Room, Blockbuster Suite, A-List Suite, Premiere Suite, Co-star Suite, and Paramount Suite, in line with the hotel’s theming. Enjoy spectacular views of Dubai’s main traffic artery – Sheikh Zayed Road, as well as the Dubai coastline on the not-so-distant horizon. When exiting the elevator to your floor, more production-set themed furniture greets you, complimented by vibrantly colored wall art immaculately placed along the tower’s lengthy corridors. Boasting floor-to-ceiling windows, rooms are well-lit during the day, revealing the city’s lit-up skyline by night, and perfect for taking in the sights and sounds of a city that never sleeps.  

King-sized bed, fluffed-down pillows, a marbled bathroom with a walk-in shower, a breath-taking balcony, and all the amenities that award you greater convenience during your stay, you’ll get a sense of true Hollywood glamour that simultaneously invokes spirited comfort and curiosity in discovering more of what lies within this tower located on Al Mustaqabal Road. 

An array of bespoke dining venues

Dining is an exciting affair, as guests can partake of decadent selections from menus carried in any one of five bespoke restaurants at Paramount Hotel Midtown. It is almost always a Friday feeling when on-site and sampling some pickings from the resident chef’s creations. Indulge in classic Italian dining at the Paparazzi Tuscan, where divas escape the drama. Oozing authentic Italian charm, this hidden hot spot is tucked away on the 14th floor, with a red carpet leading you to a space where you can escape the lights, cameras and buzzing action of the city. With an open-plan kitchen and Chef’s table experience, this upscale restaurant is where you can feast on the freshest ingredients true to Tuscan nature.

If it’s something a little more relaxed yet up-tempo you are looking for, set the weekend mood right at Melrose Bar & Lounge, the fashionable, urban lounge, where you’ll love the opportunity to lay back in a leather recliner as you peruse a fine list of curated smooth whiskeys, classic cocktails, craft beers, and botanical gins. It’s surely a taste of the West Coast at this outlet, perched on the 64th floor of the hotel, and awarding one some of the best panoramic views overlooking the Burj Khalifa, Sheikh Zayed Road, The Palm, and the Dubai coastline. A chic, pool deck by day serving up fresh, summery cocktails and a buzzing lounge by night with sundowners and light bites, Malibu Sky Lounge & Bar is where Dubai’s elite come to daydream, dine and dance the night away after perhaps having enjoyed a dip in a sparkling infinity pool.
