Jumeirah Group

Jumeirah Group is a Dubai-based luxury hotel company established in 1997 with the vision of redefining hospitality in the region and beyond.

Founded under the patronage of the ruling Al Maktoum family, it quickly gained global recognition with the opening of the iconic Burj Al Arab, often described as the world’s only “seven-star” hotel, which became an emblem of Dubai’s luxury tourism ambitions.

The group’s portfolio has expanded to include a wide range of luxury hotels, resorts, and serviced residences across the Middle East, Europe, and Asia, encompassing flagship properties such as Jumeirah Beach Hotel, Madinat Jumeirah, Jumeirah Zabeel Saray on Palm Jumeirah, and Jumeirah Emirates Towers.

In 2004, Jumeirah Group became a wholly owned subsidiary of Dubai Holding, a global investment company owned by the Government of Dubai, placing it within a broader strategy to elevate Dubai's status as a premier international tourist and business destination.

The company operates over 30 properties worldwide, including hotels in London, the Maldives, Mallorca, Bahrain, and parts of Asia. Beyond lodging, Jumeirah Group manages a diverse portfolio of more than 85 restaurants and bars, including internationally acclaimed dining venues.

The group is also known for its innovation in luxury hospitality and high standards of service, winning numerous industry awards.

Jumeirah’s brand is strongly associated with Arabian hospitality and world-class guest experiences, often blending traditional Middle Eastern architecture and culture with modern luxury.

Its expansion plans have included new hotel developments and management agreements in key global cities such as Paris, Shanghai, Milan, and New York.

With over 11,000 employees, Jumeirah Group remains one of the most prominent and influential luxury hotel operators not only in Dubai but globally, contributing significantly to the UAE’s tourism industry and luxury hospitality sector.
