Majestic Hotels Celebrates World Tourism Day with Two Decades of Dubai Hospitality and a Growing Homegrown Legacy

As the world comes together to celebrate World Tourism Day on Sunday, 27 September, UAE based hospitality group Majestic Hotels is marking the occasion by celebrating two decades of homegrown hospitality, meaningful guest experiences and its continued growth alongside one of the world’s most dynamic tourism destinations.

With a distinguished collection of upscale four-star properties across Dubai, including Majestic City Retreat, Majestic Premier and Majestic Cove, Majestic Hotels has built its reputation around a simple philosophy: “Make a Memory.” The tagline reflects the group’s commitment to creating stays that go beyond accommodation, connecting guests with the character, culture and energy of Dubai while giving them experiences worth remembering.

The group is celebrating a particularly significant year in 2026, marking its 20th anniversary while also expanding its portfolio with the launch of its fourth property, further strengthening its presence in Dubai’s competitive and rapidly evolving hospitality landscape.

For Majestic Hotels, the milestone reflects not only the growth of its portfolio, but also the evolution of Dubai itself. Over the past two decades, the city has transformed into one of the world’s leading destinations for leisure, business, retail, gastronomy and international events, welcoming millions of visitors from around the globe.

A Homegrown Hotel Group Rooted in Dubai Strategically located across Dubai, Majestic Hotels’ properties provide guests with convenient access to the city’s key attractions, transport links and business districts.

The group’s hotels place visitors within easy reach of some of Dubai’s most iconic cultural and leisure landmarks, including Meena Bazaar, Dubai Frame, the Gold and Spice Souqs, Dubai Museum, Dubai Creek, Dubai Mall and Dubai World Trade Center. Convenient access to metro connections and Dubai International Airport also makes the properties well suited to both international leisure travellers and business guests.

This balance between contemporary comfort and Dubai’s cultural heritage is central to the Majestic Hotels experience. Rather than simply offering a place to stay, the group encourages guests to explore the city, discover its neighbourhoods and create their own Dubai stories.

The result is a hospitality proposition that combines the comfort expected from an upscale four-star hotel with a distinctly local sense of place.

Looking ahead to Dubai’s Q4 Tourism Season 

World Tourism Day also comes at an important point in Dubai’s annual tourism calendar, as the city prepares to enter its traditionally vibrant Q4 season.

With cooler weather bringing increased opportunities for outdoor experiences, cultural exploration, shopping, dining and entertainment, the final quarter of the year is a particularly important period for Dubai’s hospitality sector. The season also brings a diverse mix of international visitors, families, business travellers and returning residents to the city.

For Majestic Hotels, the upcoming season represents an opportunity to welcome both first-time visitors discovering Dubai and returning guests looking to experience the city from a familiar base.

From exploring historic Dubai Creek and the traditional souqs to visiting world-renowned attractions, shopping destinations and major business and entertainment venues, guests staying at Majestic Hotels can experience the many sides of Dubai within easy reach of their hotel.

As the group enters its third decade, its focus remains firmly on the guest experience, creating comfortable stays, meaningful connections and memories that encourage visitors to return.

Twenty years of making memories 

For 20 years, Majestic Hotels has grown alongside Dubai, evolving with the city’s tourism landscape while maintaining its identity as a homegrown hospitality group.

Its latest expansion in 2026 marks another milestone in that journey, bringing the portfolio to four properties and opening a new chapter for the group.

As Dubai continues to attract visitors seeking authentic experiences alongside world-class hospitality, Majestic Hotels is looking to the future with a clear ambition: to continue growing while remaining deeply connected to the destination that has shaped its story.

This World Tourism Day, the message is simple: travel may take guests to new places, but it is the memories they create that bring them back, and for Majestic Hotels, every stay is an invitation to “Make a Memory”.

Qatar Airways today unveiled its new onboard signature music, created in partnership with world-renowned composer Hans Zimmer.

Inspired by Qatar and its culture, Qatar Airways’ new onboard music brings a distinctive sound identity to the passenger experience through its collaboration with the iconic composition of Hans Zimmer. The music is also featured on the ‘Burgundy Symphony’ album, a bespoke five-track album that encapsulates the airline’s wider sound identity and signature sound elements.

The collaboration brings together Zimmer’s acclaimed cinematic storytelling and Qatar Airways’ commitment to delivering memorable experiences, creating a recognisable sound that reflects the emotions, moments and memories that define travel.

The launch was celebrated at Hans Zimmer’s highly-anticipated concert in Doha on 6 November, where audiences were given an exclusive first look at the story behind the collaboration through a specially created film on the creative process and inspiration behind Burgundy Symphony, alongside a preview of the music. Qatar Airways passengers can experience the new composition onboard from today.

The Burgundy Symphony album captures the rhythm of travel through five original tracks, each reflecting a different stage of the journey:

Dawn opens the collection with a sense of anticipation and possibility experienced when stepping beyond the daily routine and discovering new horizons.

Dusk reflects the tranquillity of flight as daylight fades and travellers are carried above the clouds beneath a sky illuminated by stars.

The Orchard introduces a restorative pause, inspired by moments of calm and reflection amidst the pace of everyday life. The inspiration for the composition is drawn from the sense of escape offered by the ORCHARD – one of Hamad International Airport’s most distinctive passenger experiences.

Homecoming reflects the quiet gift of returning home and the small but lasting ways travel enriches life. The track encapsulates the adventure continues beyond touchdown, with memories of places and skies keeping moments of wonder alive long after the journey ends.

An Ode to Qatar, concludes the album with a tribute to the nation’s rich heritage and forward-looking vision. The piece brings together a sense of history, culture, and ambition, reflecting a country where tradition and progress exist in harmony.

Following the unveiling, Burgundy Symphony is now available on the Qatar Airways YouTube channel, inviting audiences around the world to experience Hans Zimmer’s original compositions inspired by the journey of travel and the spirit of Qatar Airways.

Coral Beach Resort Sharjah has won the Sustain Sharjah award for Hotel Properties at the Sharjah International Travel and Tourism Forum 2026, organised by the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority (SCTDA). This marks the resort’s second consecutive recognition under the initiative.

The accolade acknowledges the property’s progress at Level 2 of the programme’s Explorers journey, structured around four core pillars: Guest, Experience, Local, and Story. Across each pillar, the resort has prioritised measurable, practical measures that engage guests, support the surrounding community, and ensure transparent sustainability reporting.

Central to this achievement are three primary operational initiatives:

  • Onsite water bottling plant: Replaces single-use plastics with reusable glass bottles, eliminating approximately 300,672 plastic bottles annually.
  • Winnow AI food-waste system: Weighs and monitors kitchen waste in real time, enabling culinary teams to curb excess directly at source.
  • Onsite biodigester: Installed in 2026, making the property the first hotel in Sharjah to process organic waste entirely on site.

Commenting on the achievement, Iftikhar Hamdani, Area General Manager of Coral Beach Resort Sharjah, said: “Securing the Sustain Sharjah award for the second consecutive year is an honour for our entire team. Initiatives such as our water bottling plant, AI-driven waste monitoring, and onsite biodigester reflect our daily operational commitment—one shared with our guests, partners, and the local community. We thank the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority for this recognition and for their steady leadership in advancing sustainable tourism across the emirate.”
