As a luxury travel writer who has had the privilege of staying at numerous properties within the Dorchester Collection, I am thrilled to introduce the latest gem in their crown: The Lana, Dorchester Collection, Dubai.
This architectural marvel, gracing the waterfront of Marasi Bay Marina, commands breathtaking views of the iconic Burj Khalifa. Crafted by the visionary minds at Foster + Partners, with interiors by the distinguished Parisian duo Gilles & Boissier, The Lana opens its doors as a beacon of modern luxury and refined taste. It is the 10th Dorchester hotel globally.

February 1, 2024, marked a significant milestone for the Dorchester Collection with the opening of The Lana in Dubai, a city synonymous with unparalleled luxury and architectural innovation.
The Lana distinguishes itself not only through its 225 opulent rooms and suites but also with its eight pioneering dining concepts. Among these are collaborations with three of the culinary world’s luminaries, setting a new standard in gourmet experiences.
A Landmark of Luxury: Architectural and Interior Excellence
The Lana’s design ethos, characterized by Foster + Partners’ architectural ingenuity and Gilles & Boissier’s sophisticated interior stylings, embraces more than 50 art pieces that celebrate both local and global talents.
This landmark is also set to introduce the first Dior Spa in the UAE by April 2024, promising an oasis of tranquility and luxury.
