It has 528 rooms spread over 75 floors and a number of facilities including restaurants and a pool on top of its parking garage building.

Gevora Hotel is close to the Dubai International Financial Centre and its namesake metro station, the Rose Rayhaan by Rotana, and the Emirates Towers.

History

Construction of the Gevora Hotel in January 2008, when the 50th floor was nearly reached.

Construction of the building started in 2005 with Al Attar Properties as developer.[2] During the construction phase, the building was known as Ahmed Abdul Rahim Al Attar Tower (Arabic: برج أحمد عبد الرحيم العطار) after the chairman of the development firm.[2][3] The architect of record was Al Turath Engineering Consultants.[2] The contractors included Al Fara'a General Contracting, Naresco Contracting, and Caterpillar Contracting.[2][4][5] It was engineered by the firms Gulf Engineering & Consultants (structural) and Al Attar Electromechanical Engineering (MEP).[2]

After the groundwork was laid in 2005, the tower rose between the spring of 2006 and the summer of 2008, when the top floors were reached. One new floor was added every five days. When a new floor was constructed, first the staircase and elevator shafts were erected, followed by the outer walls and their surrounding beams. Finally, the spaces in between were filled.[6] After the main structure was finished, the building was fully clad and the crown was installed. The building was initially planned as a residential tower, but was converted into a hotel during construction.[7] It was completed in 2017 after twelve years of construction.[2] Gulf News reported the construction had cost over 500 million AED (US$140 million).[8] After its completion, it was revealed that the building would be a hotel with the name "Gevora Hotel". The first guests arrived on 12 February 2018.[9]

The Gevora Hotel consists of a main hotel building and a parking garage building. The main building has an architectural height of Шаблон:Convert, making it the tallest hotel building according to Guinness World Records.[1] It beat the previous record holder, the JW Marriott Marquis Dubai, which is located around Шаблон:Convert to the southwest, by about Шаблон:Convert.[10] The third tallest hotel, the Шаблон:Convert tall Rose Rayhaan by Rotana, is situated in close proximity as well.[11] The record of tallest hotel only considers buildings that are exclusively used as a hotel; the highest hotel room can be found at The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong, which occupies the top floors of the Шаблон:Convert tall International Commerce Centre.[12][13] Besides being the tallest hotel, Gevora Hotel is also the eighth-tallest completed building in Dubai, the ninth-tallest in the United Arab Emirates, and among the 50 tallest buildings in the world.[2]

The main building of the Gevora Hotel sits on a square Шаблон:Convert plot and climbs 75 floors to a height of Шаблон:Convert, which is the height of the top floor.[2][8] To stabilize the narrow structure, a deep foundation was used.[2] The 75 floors the building has include a mezzanine located above the first floor and three mechanical floors (labeled 11, 42, and 73).[5][6] An additional two floors are located in the basement.[2] The main structure consists of concrete and steel and is covered in a glass façade, that includes gold-tinted elements.[2] The floors can be reached by six elevators, three of which reach the top of the building. The latter elevators travel with a speed of Шаблон:Convert and can reach the highest floor in 38 seconds.[14] A pyramid-shaped crown-like structure with a gold color and lattice pattern sits upon the roof.[15] The tip of the building is located above this crown at a height of Шаблон:Convert, Шаблон:Convert above the architectural top.[2]

A parking garage building with thirteen floors is situated to the east of the main building.[16] Besides serving as a car park, the building also houses some of the hotel's facilities on its roof including a pool. The rooftop of the parking garage structure is connected to the main hotel building through a skyway.
