Ciel Dubai Marina is now officially open within IHG’s Vignette Collection. Setting a new global benchmark as the world’s tallest hotel, the ambitious project – led by Dubai developer The First Group – underscores Vignette Collection’s vision to offer one-of-a-kind stays in destinations to remember. The architectural marvel spans 82 floors which collectively rise 377 meters above Dubai and is home to one of the world’s highest infinity pools.
Ciel Dubai Marina is both an architectural and experiential landmark – a place where every stay unfolds as a story. A striking expression of contrasts – east meets west, city meets sea, scale meets intimacy — Ciel Dubai Marina embodies the Vignette Collection spirit of discovery and individuality. From one of the world’s highest infinity pools to its vibrant dining destinations, each detail is crafted with purpose, balancing drama with depth. Within flowing lines, serene tones, and natural textures create a rhythm that feels alive — calm yet energised, luxurious yet grounded. The result is a stay that connects guests not just to the destination, but to something more meaningful: a sense of place, perspective, and belonging.
Ciel Dubai Marina stands tall alongside some of the world’s most extraordinary examples in hospitality encompassed within IHG’s Vignette Collection – a growing family of distinctly different hotels, each with their own outlook and story to tell.
The hotel is home to a collection of destination dining venues, each designed to deliver exceptional culinary journeys:
- Tattu: The acclaimed UK-born Asian restaurant concept has opened a dramatic multi-level destination. The Tattu Dubai story begins on level 74, where the restaurant welcomes guests into a dramatic world of ancient mythology, modern mastery and contemporary Chinese and Japanese cuisine. On level 76, the Tattu Sky Pool rises as the world’s highest infinity pool and a must-visit destination, offering plush daybeds, Japanese-fusion bites and an energy that evolves from daytime relaxation to sunset DJ sets. The crescendo of the Tattu Dubai experience is on level 81, where the Sky Lounge & Terrace combines sophistication, music, cocktails and breathtaking 360° views to create an unforgettable rooftop experience.
- West 13: celebrates the vibrant flavours of the Mediterranean, with dishes inspired by Italy, Greece, Spain, and France. Expect handmade pastas, Greek gyros, and fresh bakery items.
- East 14: Offering a buffet-style journey through Asia, this venue will include live ramen and pho stations, sushi and dim sum counters, and various Indian curries.
- Risen Café and Artisanal Bakery: A popular local concept, Risen will serve breakfast, lunch, and all-day menus featuring pastries, cafe dishes, and locally sourced coffee.
From February 2026, guests can rejuvenate at the spa on Level 61, where advanced beauty rituals meet time-honoured traditions. The hotel’s 24-hour state-of-the-art gym offers inspiring skyline views for an energizing workout. Guests can also enjoy seamless access to Soluna Beach Club on Palm Jumeirah, where they can unwind by the private pool or relax along the pristine shoreline.
Families are warmly welcomed, with dedicated spaces and activities for children, including a Splash Pad, Kids Club, child-friendly menus, and thoughtful amenities at check-in. For business travellers and Executive Club guests, Nest located on Level 16 offers refreshments, skyline views, and stylish meeting spaces equipped with cutting-edge technology and personalized service.
Memorable Rituals – bespoke to each Vignette Collection property – connect guests with each hotel’s unique identity, locality and cultural landscape. Ciel Dubai Marina’s Morning Hydration Ritual blends vitality and elevated hospitality. Each morning guests can enjoy OneShot-blended waters at the pool and gym, a simple yet uplifting gesture reflecting the hotel’s commitment to wellness and vibrant living in Dubai Marina.
A Means for Good sees each Vignette Collection hotel partner with a chosen non-profit organisation.Ciel Dubai Marina reinforces its dedication to nurturing future talent through a strategic partnership with the International Centre for Culinary Arts (ICCA). This collaboration focusing on training and developing the next generation of culinary professionals. From hosting monthly training workshops led by the hotel’s expert team to providing essential career opportunities for aspiring chefs, the initiative enables students to achieve their full potential and drive innovation in the hospitality industry.
Managed by The First Group Hospitality, the property offers immediate access to Dubai Marina with world-class dining, shopping, stunning beaches, and renowned attractions. Just minutes from Palm Jumeirah and Uptown Dubai, it serves as the perfect starting point to experience the city’s vibrant spirit and sophistication. Nearby, the bustling JBR beachfront and the dynamic Bluewaters lifestyle destination, home to iconic landmarks such as The Walk and Ain Dubai, the world’s tallest observation wheel, provide even more opportunities for discovery. The hotel also features direct access to the Marina boardwalk with its water taxis, as well as convenient connections to Dubai Marina Mall and the city’s tram and metro services.

Since its launch in 2021, the brand has grown beyond expectation to surpass the halfway point in its 10-year target to reach 100 hotels.
