History
Construction of the Dusit Thani Dubai began in 1998 and was completed in 2001.[1] Designed by the architecture firm Khatib and Alami and built by Al Habtoor, the 153-metre tower is notable for its large arch, which rises 282 feet and meets at the 24th floor.[1]
In 2014, the hotel completed a major renovation of 147 suites.[2] Further refurbishments included the redesign of the Benjarong restaurant, which reopened in 2021 following renovations.[3]
In 2022, the property was repositioned as a dry hotel and introduced NoLo, the first non-alcoholic bar in Dubai.[4]
In 2025, the hotel took part in World Alzheimer's Month by illuminating its façade in purple and hosting events to raise awareness about dementia care.[5]
