Abu Dhabi— Landmark Hotel Group and Zenath Real Estate have unveiled a new 4-star deluxe hotel development project in Abu Dhabi. The hotel, comprising 227 rooms and 10 suites, includes three restaurants—two of which will have panoramic views of downtown Abu Dhabi. Construction of the 22-story hotel is expected to be completed in 2009.

Located in Abu Dhabi’s business district, the hotel is less than 15 minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport, five minutes from the famed Cornice and a short distance from major shopping centers and tourist spots.

In addition to the hotel, Landmark will open a 77-room deluxe serviced apartment complex this year. Zenath also has business interests in other countries through its Landmark brand, including a deluxe serviced apartment in Manama, Bahrain, a 4-star hotel in Kabul, Afghanistan, and a deluxe hotel project coming up in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Landmark Hotels, which is a Sharia-compliant company, also has three hotels in Dubai in its portfolio and is developing several more.
