Bab Al Qasr Hotel hosted Benoit Parayre, Director of Communications & Partnerships of Centre Pompidou Paris, who made his first trip to Abu Dhabi ahead of the highly-anticipated opening of the Louvre Abu Dhabi.  

Bab Al Qasr Hotel was chosen as his accommodation of choice to experience authentic Arabian hospitality. “Bab Al Qasr Hotel represents a real experience of Arabian culture and its heritage with utmost authenticity. Taking a break from the generic styles adopted by hotels all around the world, Bab Al Qasr Hotel embraces typical regionals ‘elements in its architecture, interior design, and can even be found in the way its staff welcomes their guests. I had a chance to view the hotel from across the waters and its structure is a signature among the capital’s skyline.”

Benoit Parayre appreciated the hotel’s lobby which incorporates an auburn theme and features large glass windows through which natural light spills in. “I was particularly drawn to how Bab Al Qasr Hotel has consistently maintained a unified theme throughout the property, starting from its exterior, to its interiors, and the suites. Even the hotel’s food achieves a high level of excellence leaving me impressed.”

Centre Pompidou Paris is a primary partner of Louvre Abu Dhabi, to which it loans twenty five masterpieces including famed Matisse, Picasso, Rothko, Jackson Pollock, Kandinsky paintings, as well as Giacometti, Brancusi or Choucair Saloua Raouda sculptures, or more contempory artists as Zhang Huan, for its opening on 11 November, 2017.

Background Information

Bab Al Qasr Hotel & Residences

5-Star Abu Dhabi hotel with Arabian elegance

A beautiful location on a private beach along the Abu Dhabi Corniche overlooking the stunning UAE's landmark, Presidential Palace, is just one of the highlights at the 5 star Bab Al Qasr Hotel & Residences. In addition, imposing architecture and Arabesque interiors complement the magnificent setting where luxury and contemporary comforts reign.

Bab Al Qasr means "gateway to the palace" and the statement Arabic doorway feature of this gleaming copper-tone hotel is just one architectural nod to its heritage.  Numerous elements combine to reflect the essence of Arabia – including accents reminiscent of Bedouin tents and the interlaced geometric designs of Islamic art, as well as a welcoming oasis in the luxurious lobby with palms and a falaj-like water feature.
