The Atlantis hotel on the Palm Jumeirah is set to undergo an extensive $100mn renovation just eight years after it opened its doors to the public
Serge Zaalof, president and managing director of Atlantis, said the revamp will include a full renovation of the hotel’s rooms, as well as the launch of a new “family and children activity project” of 2,200 square metres within the existing Atlantis site.
The hotel is currently in the mock-up stages to finalise the new room designs, which are being upgraded for the furst time since the hotel opened in 2008. There are also plans to upgrade the hotel’s Aquaventure water park although details have not been revealed yet.
The extensive refurb to the original hotel is in addition to the $1.4bn Royal Atlantis expansion which will add villas and hotel apartments and nearly 800 more guest rooms when it opens adjacent to the existing Atlantis Hotel in 2018.
