A 2-bed Armani Residence overlooking the fountains in Downtown

This remarkable home captures the most electric side of Downtown Dubai. It offers two bedrooms and unfolds across 1,926.31 sq. ft. Armani Hotel & Residences occupies a prime position in the city, with residents also enjoying access to the hotel’s services. Curved, floor-to-ceiling glazing wraps around the home, radiating views of the Dubai Fountain, The Dubai Mall and the Downtown skyline. Overall the house brings palettes of soft warm timber, fabric-panelled walls and polished stone floors, with a dazzling backdrop, alongside bounty of natural light.

The Tour

The doors open into a generous hallway, gently curved, with suave marble flooring extending throughout the home. Thoughtfully planned, the layout includes dedicated areas for dining and seating, with a sofa positioned adjacent to the entertainment wall. The kitchen is tucked discreetly behind panelling. It is a slim, tidy galley with matte taupe cabinetry, a pale worktop and subtle under-unit lighting.

Both bedrooms are princely. The principal suite is lined with curved green leather panels that wrap around the bed. An armchair sits in the corner, while a built-in cabinet in striped timber houses the television. The second bedroom is a study in style and sentiment, with woodland textures, slate-grey panelling and a window seat angled towards the lake, bringing together modern and contemporary elements. Alongside these considered details, there is also a walk-in dressing room, fitted in rich timber with soft integrated lighting.

It is the view that makes this apartment feel like a home. During the day, light reflects across the interiors; by night, the fountains illuminate and the skyline begins to glow. The bathrooms are finished in soft beige stone and feature a built-in bathtub, walk-in shower and generous double vanity.

The Area

Downtown Dubai is the city’s most recognisable and lively neighbourhood. The Dubai Mall and Dubai Fountain are a short walk away, while the Opera District and the Boulevard’s cafés and restaurants are close by. DIFC, Business Bay and Dubai International Airport are also within easy driving distance.
