Miral, Abu Dhabi's leading curator of magnetic experiences, has in collaboration with Warner Bros., home to one of the most well-known and successful collections of brands and characters in the world, officially opened its first ever Warner Bros. themed hotel, part of Curio Collection by Hilton. 

 

Featuring over 400 curated images and film and TV props, guests at the world's first Warner Bros. hotel will be treated to a journey of discovery through film and television, enjoying Warner Bros.' rich history and library of timeless productions at every touchpoint from arrival to check-out, said a statement from Miral. 

 

The hotel allows guests to see their favourite stories and characters brought to life through unique hospitality experiences that only the rich history and storied legacy of Warner Bros. could offer, it stated.

 

While dining in one of five restaurants on the property, you can listen as the piano from "Westworld," the hit HBO science fiction TV show, plays a familiar tune. 

 

Visitors can stroll through the lobby or admire 360-degree city and sea views alongside their favorite props and costumes from Warner Bros. films and TV shows, it said.

 

Kids and families can ring up one of their favorite Looney Tunes characters for a room service treat brought to them by the Wascally Wabbit, Bugs Bunny himself, it added.

 

On the new launch, Chairman Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak said: "This is yet another great moment for us, with The WB Abu Dhabi hotel opening on Yas Island, further positioning it as a top global destination for leisure, entertainment and business."

 

"We are very proud of our long-standing partnership with both Warner Bros. Themed Entertainment and Hilton, bringing world firsts and global hospitality offerings and experiences to Abu Dhabi," he added.

 

Pam Lifford, President of WarnerMedia Global Brands and Experiences, said: "Our dream has come true with the grand opening to the first ever Warner Bros. branded hotel. Our incredible partners at Miral and Hilton, have helped us make this vision a reality for our fans around the world."

 

"We always strive to be fan focused and have developed an exceptional hospitality experience for them to further connect with the iconic Warner Bros. brands, franchises, and characters they know and love.  Guests visiting Warner Bros. World right next door will have the ultimate encore to their park experience by relaxing and treating themselves to a stay at The WB Abu Dhabi," he added.

 

Jochem-Jan Sleiffer, President, Hilton, Middle East, Africa & Turkey, said: "With the opening of The WB Abu Dhabi hotel as part of Curio Collection by Hilton, we continue our successful partnership with Miral on Yas Island."

 

"This is the second of three hotels we are opening together, following on from the opening of Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island earlier this year, with DoubleTree by Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island Residences soon to come," he stated.

 

This property is a perfect representation of what Curio Collection by Hilton is all about, unique locations and experiences that carry their own distinct identity as a concept underpinned by the same upscale Hilton service."

 

Guests of The WB Abu Dhabi hotel begin their story as they pull up to the hotel and are greeted by digital screens that span the height of the building, playing over 35 different pieces of original content created for the hotel. 

 

Before entering the hotel, visitors won't want to miss the iconic "Friends" fountain, or snaping a pic with the all-new Batmobile from the upcoming highly anticipated film, The Batman. 

 

Guests will then enter the lobby and be drawn to the hotel's uniquely designed lobby columns. A spectacular Living Archive (spiral staircase) also resides in the lobby and will house an evolving collection of items dedicated to the vast depth and history of WB's role in entertainment, he added. 

 

Accompanying the hotel's unique design is a broad range of world class food and beverage offerings featuring five dining options catering to both adults and children. 

 

Craft Services, located in the lobby lounge, offers a relaxing coffee break after a busy day, while Sidekicks is the perfect family friendly place for socializing and interacting while enjoying a flavorful international menu. 

 

For those lounging by the pool, The Matinee provides a casual dining option for guest of all ages, complete with a dive-in pool theatre and Mediterranean menu. 

 

"Additionally, guests looking to indulge in an elegant dining experience, can visit The Director's Club offering a sophisticated meatery where charcoal ovens, perfectly aged cuts, and a menu selection of dishes inspired to reflect the movie scene setting and supporting the whole cast, serve the mature palate, or enjoy an experience at The Overlook, a fabulous lounge with a relaxing infinity pool and beautiful 360-degree city, theme park and sea views," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
