Seven Tides Unveils 396-Key NH Collection Dubai Hotel

Seven Tides launches NH Collection Dubai Ibn Battuta, a 396-room property repositioned from Oaks Ibn Battuta Gate to serve leisure, corporate, family and MICE travellers in Dubai.

Seven Tides has officially launched NH Collection Dubai Ibn Battuta, following the phased transformation and repositioning of the former Oaks Ibn Battuta Gate Hotel Dubai. The 396-room property is owned by Seven Tides and operated by Minor Hotels, expanding the company’s hospitality portfolio in the UAE. 

Located near Ibn Battuta Mall, the hotel has been repositioned to cater to leisure, family, corporate, group and meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions (MICE) travellers. The launch also strengthens the presence of the NH Collection brand in Dubai, following the opening of NH Collection Dubai The Palm in 2023. Both properties are owned by Seven Tides and operated by Minor Hotels.
