Nextar to operate Three Concepts at Grosvenor House Dubai

Grosvenor House West Marina Beach by Le Meridien, the first hotel complex to open on the Dubai Marina, has partnered with Nextar, the UAE-headquartered holding company for N.Bar and 1847, to operate trend-setting outlets in Retreat Health & Spa, the hotel’s dedicated personal grooming floor.

Retreat Health & Spa will house the fourth N.Bar in Dubai, the second 1847, and the group’s first ever hair bar. The hair concept, which currently has the working title of The Hair Bar, aims to revolutionise ladies grooming further, after the runaway success of N.Bar and 1847, the group’s venture for men.

All three outlets will be ready for business when the hotel opens on June 1.

Pam Wilby, general manager for Grosvenor House, said, “Retreat Health & Spa will have the top-end spa facilities that are essential for a total lifestyle property, but will also have a section dedicated to fast personal grooming.

“Today’s hectic pace of life demands blow-drys and manicures en route to a morning business meeting, or a shave and a trip to the salon during a lunch break.

“The key to Nextar’s brand promise is ‘fast glamour for nails’ and ‘executive grooming for men’, delivered with impeccable service, which we have identified as essential to the needs of our guests and residents.”

Negin Fattahi-Dasmal, creator of the three concepts of the Nextar parent company, admitted that the decision to have outlets in Grosvenor House was “a given”.

She said, “In terms of desirable addresses, Grosvenor House is right up there with the Hotel de Crillon in Paris and The Ritz in London. Thanks to its combination of hotel and residential apartments and with its location on the Dubai Marina, we are now able to extend our services further to residents of new Dubai.”

Retreat Health & Spa will be open to hotel guests and residents, as well as walk-in customers.

The hotel will have 217 sea-facing rooms, while the 205 apartments will offer stunning marina views, and three of the signature touches will be plasma televisions in all rooms, personalised butler service and 24-hour room service from all outlets, in addition to the use of beach and pool facilities at the adjacent Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort & Spa.
