Introduced in April 2025, Trump International Hotel & Tower, Dubai is set to become a defining addition to Dubai's skyline.

Rising approximately 350 metres across 80 floors, the development combines world-class hospitality, branded residences and an exclusive private members' club.

Designed to set a new benchmark for luxury living, the tower will feature Dubai's highest outdoor swimming pool, two signature penthouses inspired by New York's iconic Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue, and uninterrupted views across Burj Khalifa, Downtown Dubai and the Arabian Gulf.
