Armani hotel launch delayed

26 July 2009

Viviana Giussani, a spokeswoman for Armani fashion house in Italy, has said that the Dubai Armani Hotel 'is not opening in September but later, anyway by the end of 2009,' The National has reported. The Armani Hotel Dubai opening 'has simply been moved to a new date but this decision has nothing to do with delays or any kind of problem,' she said. The hotel, which occupies the levels between the concourse and the eighth floor, and levels 38 and 39 of the world's tallest tower, is a joint project between Emaar Properties and the designer Giorgio Armani, who had personally designed the 160 rooms. It will also have a nightclub called the Armani Privé, a spa, an Armani Dolci confectionery store and an Armani Galleria.
