Minor Hotels, an international hotel owner, operator, and investor, signed a strategic management agreement with Seven Tides, valued partners. The hotel is located on Dubai’s Palm West Beach. Effective by 1st August 2025, the addition of this new resort and serviced residences—currently operating as Dukes The Palm, a Royal Hideaway Hotel—to Minor Hotels’ managed portfolio further strengthens the group’s growing footprint in the United Arab Emirates and establishes it as the largest operator on the Trunk of the Palm.
The resort boasts a beachfront location next to NH Collection Dubai The Palm which will launch in February 2023. It includes 273 hotel rooms and 287 serviced apartment. Minor Hotels’ Palm Jumeirah total key count will rise to 1,524 keys, across three distinct brands including Anantara The Palm Dubai Resort, NH Collection Dubai The Palm and NH Collection Dubai The Palm. This agreement reinforces the group’s commitment to the region.
The hotel is situated on Palm West Beach – one of Dubai’s most popular lifestyle destinations. This property provides direct access a lively promenade with upscale restaurants, clubs and entertainment venues. This property is located in a prime location, within easy access of major landmarks and only 30 minutes from Dubai International Airport. It’s a great choice for leisure and business travelers.
The property has a wide range of rooms and suites. There are also 287 serviced apartment layouts that include studios, two-bedrooms and one-bedrooms. The property offers six dining options, including a speciality restaurant and poolbar, along with a beach, an infinity swimming pool, a lazy river and extensive family-friendly and wellness facilities.
Minor Hotels is also implementing a soft refurbishment to the guestrooms and public spaces before a rebranding will be announced in 2025. The group wants to provide value for guests and partners and enhance the property’s positioning on the market.
The expanded collaboration between Seven Tides and Seven Tides is a strategic alignment in values and vision. Palm Jumeirah has one of the world’s most dynamic hospitality markets. Securing a dominant position on West Beach allows us to deliver our elevated guest experience to a location which perfectly embodies Dubai’s energy and ambition. Dillip Rajakarier is the CEO of Minor Hotels
Minor Hotels is celebrating a historic moment as it expands its presence in the most competitive hospitality market on earth. This new addition not reflects only our strategic vision of growth in urban resort destinations that are high-demand but also strengthens the relationship we have with Seven Tides. We look forward to working together in order to elevate the guest experience, and deliver long-term success at Palm Jumeirah. Amir Golbarg, Senior Vice President Minor Hotels Middle East & Africa
