WAM

The UAE capital to set to open the world’s first Warner Bros. themed hotel later this year.

With design and concept inspired by the world-famous Warner Bros. brand, the hotel, developed with a total investment of US$112 million, promises to create an experience fit for a Hollywood star.

The WB Abu Dhabi hotel, operated and managed by Hilton under its upper-upscale Curio Collection by Hilton brand, is now 90 per cent complete. 

So far, the first guestroom floors, branding and theming, as well as the ballroom, core spaces, and the building facade have been substantially completed.

Created by Miral alongside Warner Bros. Themed Entertainment, the hotel will feature 257 rooms over eight levels, with modern decor that celebrates Warner Bros. extensive film and television library. 

The property’s contemporary design will also include signature WB themed restaurants, a premier spa and fitness club, and a shaded rooftop pool where guests can take in Yas Island’s distinctive skyline.

"We look forward to celebrating the hotel’s opening later this year and welcoming guests to experience a truly unique hotel," said Mohamed Abdalla Al Zaabi, CEO of Miral.

Meanwhile, Peter van Roden, SVP Warner Bros. Themed Entertainment, expressed delight at being "so close to completion on the world’s first Warner Bros. branded hotel".
