GHM announces the addition of Al Bait Sharjah, to their collection for 2018. Located just 20 miles from Dubai along the southern coast of the Arabian Peninsula, and widely recognized as the cultural hub of the UAE, Sharjah is brimming with 6,000 years of history and culture. From captivating souks and museums to majestic mountains and incredible coastline, Sharjah is a place yet to be explored by the international traveler for its cultural and historical importance, that brings to light the real Arabia.
Al Bait Sharjah which translates to 'The House' is set to raise the bar for luxury hotel accommodation in the United Arab Emirates' (UAE) cultural city of Sharjah and help to place the destination on the map. The boutique property will be home to 53 luxury guestrooms and suites. The hotel facilities and amenities will include a luxury hammam and an array of dining offerings spotlighting local and international cuisine. The architecture and design will sensitively reflect Arabic culture, in tune with its surroundings and blending harmoniously with the heritage buildings in the district.
Al Bait Sharjah will be situated in the UAE's most ambitious historical restoration project known as Heart of Sharjah - a distinctly unique development which follows traditional Sharjah architecture built upon the original foundations of old houses that once belonged to the most esteemed families in the country. Heart of Sharjah seeks to revitalize the heritage district and introduce travelers to its glorious past, transforming restaurants, cafes, art galleries and atmospheric local bazaars where travelers can experience the UAE's cultural and social fabric. In a landscape where travelers are looking for authentic experiences, Al Bait Sharjahs' key location will allow travelers to conveniently explore the community and ultimately raise the profile for the destination. Sharjah also plays host to internationally acclaimed events including the Sharjah Formula 1 Powerboat Grand Prix, the Dubai World Cup of horseracing and the Sharjah Biennial, one of the Middle East's most prestigious art events.
