Step into the spotlight as Paramount Hotel is set to open its second location in Dubai’s Business Bay next month.
Paramount Hotel Midtown, with its sleek Hollywood-chic decor, will start welcoming guests in the first week of February. The hotel will have 281 contemporary rooms and suites including Scene Rooms, A-list Suites and a Paramount Suite.
The rooms are designed to emulate the lifestyle of the rich and famous and have balconies that overlook the Dubai coastline or offer Burj Khalifa views.
Much like the first branch, the hotel is inspired by the 110-year-old cinematic history of Paramount Pictures.
There are five restaurants at Paramount Hotel Midtown – the upscale Italian outlet Paparazzi Tuscan and Melrose Bar and Lounge are both are tucked away on the 14th floor; there's the all-day dining restaurant CineScope; and the Malibu Sky Lounge and Pool Bar on the 64th floor offering stunning panoramic skyline views. There's also L-Cafe where guests can go to enjoy a coffee with a view.
Those looking to unwind can also visit the Pause Spa, which was created in collaboration with French brand Chateau Berger, or visit the fitness centre, which boasts state-of-the art equipment. Children can also enjoy their time with The Kids Studio Club, which comes with a menu of cinematic experiences.
“The Paramount proposition is special, with a rich history to live up to. We’ve been immensely successful with our first property and we are now looking forward to our second opening, which will, without a doubt, be a unique addition to Dubai’s vibrant hospitality scene,” said Jean Faivre, senior vice president of hospitality for Damac Hotels and Resorts.
The first Paramount Hotel Dubai opened in Business Bay in 2019 with 92 suites, 730 rooms, five food and beverage outlets.

hall of shame
SUNDERLAND 2002-03
No one has ended a Premier League season quite like Sunderland. They lost each of their final 15 games, taking no points after January. They ended up with 19 in total, sacking managers Peter Reid and Howard Wilkinson and losing 3-1 to Charlton when they scored three own goals in eight minutes.
SUNDERLAND 2005-06
Until Derby came along, Sunderland’s total of 15 points was the Premier League’s record low. They made it until May and their final home game before winning at the Stadium of Light while they lost a joint record 29 of their 38 league games.
HUDDERSFIELD 2018-19
Joined Derby as the only team to be relegated in March. No striker scored until January, while only two players got more assists than goalkeeper Jonas Lossl. The mid-season appointment Jan Siewert was to end his time as Huddersfield manager with a 5.3 per cent win rate.
ASTON VILLA 2015-16
Perhaps the most inexplicably bad season, considering they signed Idrissa Gueye and Adama Traore and still only got 17 points. Villa won their first league game, but none of the next 19. They ended an abominable campaign by taking one point from the last 39 available.
FULHAM 2018-19
Terrible in different ways. Fulham’s total of 26 points is not among the lowest ever but they contrived to get relegated after spending over £100 million (Dh457m) in the transfer market. Much of it went on defenders but they only kept two clean sheets in their first 33 games.
LA LIGA: Sporting Gijon, 13 points in 1997-98.
BUNDESLIGA: Tasmania Berlin, 10 points in 1965-66
