Dubai, UAE, January 2026 — Mövenpick Hotel & Apartments Bur Dubai has completed an extensive renovation of its serviced apartment building, unveiling a refreshed portfolio of premium one-, two- and three-bedroom residences designed to meet Dubai’s growing demand for high-quality, long-stay serviced accommodation.
The transformation comes at a time when Dubai continues to experience rapid population growth and increased relocation to the city, driven by strong economic momentum, business expansion, and lifestyle appeal. According to recent reports, Dubai’s population is projected to reach 4 million residents in 2026, with continued growth expected in the coming years, placing sustained demand on residential and serviced living solutions.
Spanning 12 floors, the newly renovated apartments range in size from 85 to 131 square metres and have been reimagined to offer a refined yet comfortable residential experience. The design draws inspiration from Dubai’s dynamic urban rhythm, where heritage and modern living coexist, reflected through light-filled interiors, clean architectural lines, and a calm, contemporary colour palette. Thoughtfully planned layouts allow space to breathe, creating a sense of ease and familiarity for guests settling into the city for extended stays.
Each apartment features upgraded living areas and fully equipped kitchens designed for everyday use, supporting a natural, home-style way of living. Select residences also open onto private terraces with views of the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Frame, connecting guests visually and emotionally to the city beyond their walls. This sense of place begins upon arrival, with newly reimagined public areas and a redesigned lobby that blends local influences with modern elegance.
The renovation aligns with evolving guest expectations, particularly among professionals on extended assignments, families relocating to Dubai, and long-stay visitors seeking privacy, space, and independence without compromising on hotel comforts. The property’s central location in Oud Metha, with convenient access to Sheikh Zayed Road, World Trade Centre, healthcare city, business districts, and cultural landmarks, further strengthens its appeal for both lifestyle and purpose-driven stays.
“We are delighted to bring a new experience of a contemporary living at Mövenpick Hotel & Apartments Bur Dubai. Following a full renovation, our residences have been thoughtfully redesigned to offer a fresh, modern aesthetic paired with exceptional comfort and smart in‑room technology”, said Damir Kartal, Cluster General Manager. “Located in the highly sought‑after Oud Metha district, our serviced apartments place you at the centre of Dubai’s business, leisure, and lifestyle destinations. Perfect for business travellers and long‑stay guests, each space blends style with functionality to create a seamless home‑away‑from‑home experience”
Rooted in the Mövenpick spirit of generosity, joy, and reconnection, and elevated through Accor’s commitment to responsible and forward-thinking hospitality, this is city living reimagined. Sustainability, wellbeing, and intuitive technology have also been thoughtfully integrated throughout the renovation. Energy-efficient systems, smart temperature controls, and water-saving solutions support responsible living without disrupting comfort. A cloud-based entertainment system allows guests to stream personal content, access digital newspapers, and enjoy a paperless information experience, while enhanced connectivity ensures reliable, high-speed internet for both work and leisure.
The timing of the renovation also reflects broader hospitality and tourism trends. Dubai welcomed 9.88 million international overnight visitors in the first half of the year alone, highlighting Dubai’s growing appeal not only as a travel destination, but as a city where visitors are increasingly choosing to stay longer.
With its renewed focus on space, comfort, and thoughtful design, the property reinforces its role in supporting Dubai’s continued growth, offering a place not just to stay, but to truly live.
