Hotel Inspiration: 25 Hours One Central Dubai

Dec 6, 2023

With quirky and unique interiors, the 25 Hours One Central Hotel effortlessly combines traditional and contemporary style with comfort and luxury touches. With a rooftop pool with a view of one of the world’s most beautiful buildings, there’s so many reasons to choose to stay at 25 Hours One Central when visiting Dubai…

The Hotel…

Located near the Dubai International Financial Centre and overlooking the Museum of the Future, 25 Hours One Central is, as the name suggests, in the centre of the city. The ideal base for exploring from, the hotel also has so much to offer, so much so, that you might find yourself happy to spend a day or two just chilling out here. 

The decor is maximalist – at the hotel you’ll find over 10,000 books and 6,000 antiques, hundreds of hand mirrors and striking works of art. Completed by international design studio Woods Bagot, the style uses both old and new pieces with a refined mix and match look creating a new style like nothing I’d ever seen before. It feels a bit like an Aladdin’s Cave – everywhere you look there’s something to admire, but it still has a polished ‘luxe’ finish. 

In total there are 434 rooms, all of which fall into one of five themes: Farmstay, Hakawati, Glamping, Bedouin and Artist Village. Each and every room is quirkily decorated, with elements like vintage photographs and macrame swing chairs. 

Breakfast can be included in your rate, and wifi is free, plus the hotel is family-friendly and children up to 12 years-old go free (I’m sure children would love the quirky interiors here, as there’s so much to see!). 

Dining at 25 Hours One Central…

There are five bars and restaurants in total at 25 Hours One Central, all serving up different dishes and experiences. I’d highly recommend dining at Tandoor Tina, the on-site restaurant that serves delicious North Indian dishes, updated with a modern twist – sag aloo shepherd’s pie, is one of the standout items on the menu. 

For coffee, there’s the Nightjar, which is considered the city’s leading coffee roaster, and for cocktails, head to Monkey Bar, where you can also grab a bite to eat too, from the Latin-American inspired menu. The hotel also has a licence to sell pork, so should the mood strike, you can get a hotdog and Bavarian beer from Ernst Biergarten & Wirtshaus.

The ‘Extras’…

Also at the hotel, you will find ‘The Extra Hour’, the on-site spa. Taking a new approach to the traditional spa, The Extra Hour focuses on making space for and supporting ‘me time’. Offering a variety of treatments, choose from ‘quick fixes’ to full body treatments, or relax in the sauna. There’s also a women’s only salon, which is run by celebrity hairstylist Wassim Steve. 

The rooftop pool is a must-visit, with its spectacular view, and there’s a shisha lounge too. The Bavarian pub even has its own hops garden, there’s a pottery studio, and pop-up cinema with regular events at the hotel. There’s lots to hold your interest, should you prefer to spend a day at the hotel, or to come back to in the evenings. 

For getting around, you can rent a MINI or a Schindelhauer bike from the hotel, to get you from A to B and back again with ease. 

The Location: One Central…

One Central is an exciting new hub that’s next door to the World Trade Centre. A modern development, the area is constantly growing and being updated. 

There are lots of things to do and see in the local area. Nearby you’ll find Burk Khalai – the world’s tallest building, La Mer beach, Malls and Dubai Airport is just five miles away. Of course there’s also the Museum of the Future, which you can see from the rooftop pool. There’s also plenty of local restaurants and bars to try out, should you want to venture out of the hotel in the evening. 

Charming, unique and with so much going on, the 25 Hours One Central Hotel is the ideal choice if you’re looking for a home away from home. The quirky decor makes it feel comfortable, while also providing everything you need for an elevated experience which those all important luxurious finishes.
