A MASTERPIECE RECOGNISED: ME BY MELIÁ DUBAI AWARDED ONE KEY BY THE MICHELIN GUIDE 2025

Published

on

The iconic ME By Meliá Dubai, designed by the legendary Zaha Hadid, has been awarded the prestigious One Key by the MICHELIN Guide 2025, joining the ranks of the world’s most exceptional hotels celebrated for excellence in design, service, and guest experience.

A sculptural marvel rising in the heart of Dubai’s Burj Khalifa district, ME By Meliá Dubai is the only hotel in the world fully designed, inside and out, by Hadid herself. The property embodies her bold, futuristic vision, a fluid interplay of light, form, and emotion that transforms every stay into an experience of art.

This new recognition by the MICHELIN Guide affirms the hotel’s position as a global icon of contemporary hospitality, where the boundaries between architecture, culture, and comfort dissolve into a seamless work of art.

This recognition is more than an accolade; it’s a reflection of our spirit,” said Elsa Lahoude, general manager. “At ME by Meliá Dubai, hospitality is an art form. Every curve, every interaction, and every detail is crafted to evoke emotion and connection. To be recognised by the MICHELIN Guide is a tribute to our team’s creativity, dedication, and belief in reimagining the meaning of luxury.”

Beyond its striking architecture, ME by Meliá Dubai has redefined what it means to stay in style. Its 93 rooms and 13 residences are individually designed, no two spaces alike – each celebrating personality and perspective. The hotel’s intuitive service model is built on personalisation, empathy, and spontaneity, inviting guests to become collaborators in an unfolding creative experience. Even poolside, the sense of artistry continues, with luxurious Loro Piana sunbeds designed by Dutch artist Femm, blending comfort with creative expression and offering guests an elevated space to unwind in style.

The hotel has evolved into a true cultural hub, featuring nine acclaimed dining destinations. These include Central Restaurant, the hotel’s signature venue, alongside eight exceptional partner concepts: ROKA – visited by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum; Maison Dali, helmed by Tristin Farmer, a three-Michelin-starred chef; Soirée, The MAINE Land Brasserie, Le Relais de L’Entrecôte, Revolver, Salmon Guru, and Sfumato. Complementing its culinary offerings are art-led experiences and fashion-forward collaborations that continue to shape the city’s ever-evolving cultural landscape.

As it celebrates this new milestone, ME By Meliá Dubai continues to embody its ethos: “Contemporary Culture, By Design,” a philosophy that lives through every curve of its architecture, every personalised gesture of its service, and every creative collaboration that brings the city’s cultural pulse to life.

The air is further filled with the scent of tradition at the live cooking stations, where freshly prepared Saj (Cheese and Zaatar) and expert carvings are made to order.

The experience reaches a sweet crescendo with a decadent dessert selection. Whether it’s the warmth of Cheese Kunafa and Umm Ali, the crunch of Baklawa, or the modern indulgence of Chocolate Fudge and Passion Fruit Delight, there is a flavor for every craving.

As the night matures, the energy shifts into a relaxed Suhoor. In a setting designed for late-night conversations, guests can enjoy a curated à la carte menu of local delights.
