Mama Shelter, Ennismore’s affordable and design-led hotel collection, has announced six new additions to its growing portfolio.

With Mama Shelter Dubai opening on 15th December 2024, there will be seven new openings planned by the end of 2026. 

2025 openings

Mama Shelter will be heading to Asia for the first time. For its first opening of 2025, Mama Shelter Singapore will be the brand’s 20th establishment in the portfolio, launching in early 2025. 

The 110-key hotel will be located in the heart of Killiney Road. There will also be a restaurant, and a rooftop with a pool offering and view of the Singapore skyline.

Shortly after, Mama Shelter will open in Switzerland in mid 2025 with the opening of Mama Shelter Zurich. With over 170 rooms, a restaurant, a rooftop and 550 m² of meeting rooms, the hotel will be located in the Oerlikon district, known for the Hallenstadion, a prestigious venue for concerts and major sporting events, as well as the Messe Zürich exhibition centre and the Theater 11 Zürich, which hosts Broadway shows.

2026 openings

Mama Shelter will launch for the first time in the African continent, with the opening of Mama Shelter Cape Town in 2026. 

Mama Shelter will take over the City Park building, and feature over 120 rooms, 213 m² of meeting rooms, 380 m² of workspaces, a gym and a rooftop restaurant, as well as a pool and terrace. 

The hotel will also introduce a brand-new concept for the brand: Mama Play, a 742 m² leisure space featuring bowling, karaoke and dedicated areas for dining and events.

In 2026, Mama Shelter will also be opening its second hotel in Los Angeles, Mama Shelter Downtown LA. Located in the Fashion District and just steps from the Los Angeles Flower District, this Mama Shelter will offer over 140 rooms and four suites, two restaurants, one on the rooftop, and a coffee shop. 

Mama Shelter Medellín will open in 2026 in the heart of the El Poblado district, offering 150 rooms, a restaurant, a bar, a rooftop pool with panoramic views and over 3,000 m² of coworking space and 500 m² of meeting rooms.

Mama Shelter’s final opening for 2026 will be Mama Shelter Casablanca, located in the Princesses district, with over 90 rooms and 49 exclusively designed apartments. The hotel will be home to the longest pool in the city, a rooftop lounge with panoramic views, 140 m² meeting room, multiple dining options and a fitness room. 

Mama Shelter was launched in 2008 by Serge Trigano, with the aim to offer enjoyable experiences to guests at an affordable price. 

After the opening of the Paris East hotel, came those in Marseille, Lyon, Bordeaux, Los Angeles, Rio de Janeiro, Prague, Belgrade, Toulouse, Lille, London, Paris West, Luxembourg, Rome, Lisbon, Paris La Défense, Rennes, Dijon, and Nice. More openings are now planned in Dubai, Zurich, and many other locations. 

In 2014, the international hotel chain Accor partnered with Mama Shelter to expand the concept, welcoming travellers from near and far across the world. Mama Shelter is part of Ennismore, a creative hospitality company rooted in culture and community.
