The Intercontinental Plaza

The Intercontinental Plaza in Dubai is a part of the larger InterContinental Dubai Festival City complex, which includes the InterContinental Dubai Festival City Hotel. The hotel and plaza complex is situated in Dubai Festival City, offering a prime location on the Dubai Creek with views of the Burj Khalifa and proximity to Dubai International Airport.

Construction of the InterContinental Dubai Festival City Hotel began in 2005, and the hotel opened in 2007. The design was handled by the architectural firm 3D/International, and the structure features a distinctive sailboat-inspired curved facade facing the creek. The Intercontinental Plaza serves as a commercial and retail hub connected to the hotel and the adjoining Dubai Festival City Mall.

The plaza benefits from Dubai Festival City's vibrant atmosphere and is a strategic spot for shopping, dining, and entertainment that complements the luxury hotel experience. The entire development reflects Dubai's emphasis on blending luxury hospitality with lifestyle and retail to attract both business and leisure visitors.

The hotel is renowned for its high-end amenities, including dining options featuring Michelin-starred chefs and attractions such as a glass-bottomed swimming pool and an animated LED-lit facade with evening laser light shows, making the Intercontinental Plaza a notable destination in the retail and hospitality landscape of Dubai.

The world is wide, and curiosity is the compass.
