Address Boulevard shape.

Kempinski The Boulevard Dubai, previously known as the Address Boulevard, is a 73-storey 370 m (1,214 ft) hotel in Downtown Dubai in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It has 196 five-star-hotel rooms and 523 serviced residences. It is on the list of tallest buildings in Dubai and the list of tallest buildings in the world. It has a restaurant and 3 pools and has views of the Burj Khalifa.[4]

The hotel permanently showcases 251 specially-commissioned original artworks by 48 internationally renowned artists.[5][6]

The hotel was previously part of the Address Hotels & Resorts, a hotel chain owned by the Emirati real estate company Emaar.

History

The project was developed and previously owned by Emaar Properties back in 2012. The serviced residences sold out on the day of the launch of sales in September 2012.[7][8][9]

The hotel opened in 2017.[5]

In 2018, Emaar sold its hotels in Dubai, including Address Boulevard, to Abu Dhabi National Hotels for $598 million.[10]

In 2024, Abu Dhabi National Hotels announced that the Address Boulevard would be rebranded to Kempinski The Boulevard Dubai, thereby ending Emaar's management of the hotel.
