Kerzner International reopens The Meydan Hotel as a Rare Finds property in Dubai

Dubai Holding Hospitality’s celebrated trackside destination, The Meydan Hotel, has formally relaunched as part of Kerzner International’s Rare Finds collection.

Positioned minutes from Downtown Dubai and Dubai International Airport, the reimagined property merges striking contemporary design with the energy of the famed Meydan Racecourse. Its undulating silhouette and luminous glass exterior frame views of Dubai’s horse racing heritage. The hotel presents 284 generously proportioned rooms and suites featuring abundant natural light, floor-to-ceiling windows, private balconies, and Kerzner’s renowned hospitality.

Ziad Sleiman, General Manager of The Meydan Hotel, remarked during the reopening: “This property holds deep significance in Dubai’s hospitality narrative. Our team is privileged to unveil its next evolution—honoring its legacy while introducing Kerzner’s distinctive energy and service benchmarks. We eagerly welcome guests to rediscover Meydan in its renewed form.”

The newly designed rooms prioritize spacious layouts, with entry-level accommodations spanning 62 square meters and signature suites extending across two levels at 370 square meters. The property grants exclusive access to premium sports facilities—direct racetrack vistas, The Track’s illuminated golf course, and Meydan Tennis Academy’s courts. As evening approaches, the hotel transforms into a vibrant social destination balancing recreation and cultural engagement.

Dining experiences have undergone thoughtful curation: Farriers presents Mediterranean flavors in al fresco settings, Millennium Lounge offers crafted coffee and shisha, while Equus Pool Bar accompanies the rooftop infinity pool overlooking Dubai’s skyline. The property further accommodates events through versatile indoor and outdoor venues with capacity for 50,000 guests, supplemented by ample on-site parking.
