Trump Tower for Dubai: Dar Global's CEO on Partnering with Trump Organization
 

Dar Global and The Trump Organization have officially launched the Trump International Hotel and Tower, Dubai—an 80‑storey, 350 m skyscraper at the gateway to Downtown Dubai.

This development marks the brand’s first Middle East hotel tower and Dar Global’s fifth collaboration with the Trump Organization.

Set to deliver panoramic views of the Burj Khalifa and Arabian Sea, the development will feature ultra‑luxury hotel rooms, private residences crowned by sky‑pool penthouses, a members‑only club, and the world’s highest outdoor pool reserved for residents, reinforcing Dubai’s reputation as a global centre of high‑end real estate and hospitality.

Landmark Skyscraper Debut

Dar Global, the London‑listed luxury real estate developer, and The Trump Organization unveiled plans for Trump International Hotel and Tower, Dubai at the IPS 2025 Congress in Dubai.

This project represents the first and only Trump International Hotel and Tower in the Middle East—and the fifth Dar Global–Trump Organization partnership, following Trump Tower Jeddah and the Trump International Golf Club and Hotel in Oman’s AIDA development.

The tower comprises 80 floors of luxury hotel accommodations, private lounges, and world‑class amenities designed to meet the brand’s exacting standards.

Crowning the skyline, two duplex penthouses with private sky pools will emulate the iconic Trump Tower Penthouse in New York, complete with floor‑to‑ceiling windows framing Dubai’s skyline.

Exclusive Residential and Club Offerings

Residents will enjoy access to the globe’s highest outdoor pool, reserved exclusively for tower occupants, and a private members‑only club—The Trump—that delivers bespoke dining, wellness, and business‑class services behind controlled entry.

In addition to 1‑ to 3‑bedroom apartments, the tower will feature four‑bedroom duplex penthouses, each reflecting bespoke finishes and smart‑home integration.

Strategic Partnership and Regional Impact

Eric Trump, Executive Vice President of The Trump Organization, stated: “Trump International Hotel & Tower, Dubai reflects our commitment to excellence, luxury, and innovation. We’re honoured to partner with Dar Global to bring world‑class amenities to Dubai’s thriving luxury market”.

Ziad El Chaar, CEO of Dar Global, added: “Dubai’s vibrant economy and strategic location make it a prime investment hub. This development allows investors to benefit from both Trump’s brand prestige and Dar Global’s expertise in luxury real estate development”.

In an earlier conversation with Built Environment ME, El Chaar spoke extensively about the ongoing partnership with Trump Organization. He noted, "Partnerships with iconic brands like the Trump Organization enhance FDI by raising the profile of our projects internationally and reinforce our commitment to delivering world-class developments."

"The Trump brand is synonymous with luxury, prestige, and excellence, and its presence in the GCC signifies a new era of opulence and sophistication. Projects like Trump International Oman and the recently announced Trump Tower Jeddah are not just real estate developments; they are global landmarks elevate the region’s status as a destination for luxury living. These collaborations resonate strongly with international buyers, who recognise the value of investing in properties that carry the legacy and reputation of globally renowned brands," he added.
