FORM Hotel

Located in the burgeoning Al Jadaf Culture Village and in close proximity to the Dubai Design District, Dubai International Airport, and the World Trade Centre, Form Hotel is carved from an Architecture Studio-designed structure that relives the origins of Dubai"s heritage. Punctuating the Dubai skyline with a stark white façade marked by acoustically sensitive floor-to-ceiling windows, the 15-storey hotel is led by a strong design narrative that permeates the building. Inside, art deco-inspired bespoke furniture—also by the Paris-based Architecture Studio—fills guestrooms alongside custom-crafted art and photography by Nina Dietzel, for an understated yet sharp interior that is at once timeless and contemporary.

The hotel presents a wellness-driven concept throughout, most prominently in its three food and beverage outlets, each of which proffer wholesome menus crafted from sustainably sourced ingredients. Elsewhere, a rooftop pool offers stunning vistas over the neighboring Al Jadaf boatyards, while a series of "add-on" features, from private yoga sessions to curated Spa Kits created for both men and women, push mindfulness to the fore of each and every stay. Beyond the hotel, an array of community-minded tours connect guests with the neighborhood and local voices. The Form Art Tour, for example, presents the city"s art hubs via an outing that observes street art, galleries, and exhibitions, while the Form Architecture Tour goes off grid to follow an itinerary that incorporates the city"s lesser known power structures.
