Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL) has recently entered into a partnership with BNW Developments to bring Taj Wellington Mews—a 336-room, branded hotel apartment project—to life. This new development marks a noteworthy strategic step for IHCL as they expand their global footprint. It also marks their first venture into Ras Al Khaimah.
A deeper look at the project
Surrounded by the beauty of the Arabian Peninsula and the majestic Jebel Jais, Taj Wellington Mews on Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah, promises an array of experiences. From a range of dining options to business facilities to a luxurious spa, this new hotel development will cater to all guests.
Mr. Puneet Chhatwal, Managing Director and CEO of IHCL, states, “Ras Al-Khaimah’s unique cultural heritage, natural beauty, and significant infrastructure development make it an increasingly compelling destination for global travelers. With its immense potential to redefine the Middle Eastern hospitality landscape, the emirate is equipped to become a leading tourism epicenter. As we expand our global footprint, we are delighted to partner with BNW Developments to introduce our iconic Taj hospitality to this island.”
Taj Wellington Mews will offer a variety of dining experiences so that each guest can find the best option suited to their preferences.
- An all-day dining restaurant that will cater to diverse tastes
- A specialty restaurant, yet to be announced, offering distinctive regional or specialized cuisine
- A bar for socializing, celebrating, and entertaining
- A lounge, ideal for relaxation, casual meetings, or even catching up on the latest news (what’s your take on all the new and developing hotel trends?)
In addition, this new hotel will feature meeting rooms with versatile, flexible spaces to accommodate both small and large groups. Catering even more to the needs of business travelers, a state-of-the-art boardroom will also be available for high-level corporate meetings. For guests looking to unwind, a fully equipped gym with modern fitness facilities and an outdoor swimming pool won’t leave anyone wanting. And neither will the luxurious spa, which plans to offer a selection of wellness treatments and therapies.
Al Marjan Island and its surroundings
Taj Wellington Mews is located on Al Marjan Island, which is a group of four coral-shaped islands in a man-made archipelago in the Persian Gulf. As one of the United Arab Emirates’ premier tourism spots, this is a perfect location for this new hotel project. The island is surrounded by nearly five kilometers of stunning beaches, crystal-clear water, and a landscape that covers an area of 2,700,000 square meters.
Really, could there be a more beautiful location for a new hotel development?
Mr. Ankur Aggarwal, Chairman and Founder of BNW Developments, and Dr. Vivek Anand Oberoi, Cofounder and Managing Director of BNW Developments, have said, “We are excited to partner with IHCL to bring the iconic Taj brand to Al Marjan Island. With its rich hospitality legacy and commitment to excellence, Taj Wellington Mews will be a landmark property in the region.”
