In a glittering celebration high above the Dubai skyline, Al Habtoor City Hotel Collection hosted its inaugural Partner Appreciation Night, a refined and exclusive evening dedicated to honouring its most valued partners. Held on May 29 at the Executive Lounge on the 30th floor of V Hotel Dubai, Curio Collection by Hilton, the event brought together key players from the hospitality industry for a night of recognition, networking, and celebration.
The invitation-only event reflected the spirit of collaboration that defines Al Habtoor City’s legacy. With panoramic city views providing a stunning backdrop, guests were treated to an unforgettable evening that celebrated shared achievements and envisioned a future of continued excellence.
Stefan Radstrom, General Manager of Al Habtoor City Hotel Collection, spoke passionately about the significance of the night. “Partner Appreciation Night is more than just a celebration. It is a heartfelt acknowledgement of the relationships we’ve built over time—relationships rooted in trust, performance, and a shared pursuit of excellence,” he said.
Soufiane El Allam, Complex Operations & Commercial Director, echoed the sentiment: “Success in hospitality is never achieved alone. It’s the product of passion, performance, and partnership. This evening was our tribute to those who help us turn ambition into reality.”
Running from 7 PM to 10 PM, the event featured an atmosphere that mirrored the high standards upheld by Al Habtoor City’s three luxury properties: Al Habtoor Palace Dubai, Hilton Dubai Al Habtoor City, and V Hotel Dubai. Guests enjoyed a vibrant mix of live entertainment, dynamic DJ sets, and a carefully curated culinary journey featuring signature dishes from celebrated venues such as ZOCO, Ribs & Brews, World Cut Steakhouse, and BQ. Premium beverages, crafted in partnership with Patrón Tequila, added a sophisticated touch.
The evening also served as a moment of pride for the hotel group, which recently earned a series of prestigious accolades. Al Habtoor Palace Dubai received the Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star Rating for 2025 and was named Hotel of the Year by Preferred Hotels & Resorts. Meanwhile, Hilton Dubai Al Habtoor City was recognised as the #2 Top Meeting Hotel in the Middle East & Africa by Cvent. These achievements underscore the brand’s commitment to quality and the critical role played by its network of partners.
Set along the Dubai Water Canal, Al Habtoor City Hotel Collection blends elegance, innovation, and hospitality across its trio of world-class hotels. The vibrant setting of V Hotel Dubai, known for its avant-garde design and social energy, proved an ideal venue for this landmark event.
With Partner Appreciation Night, Al Habtoor City Hotel Collection not only celebrated the people behind its success but also reinforced its mission to cultivate lasting partnerships and lead with distinction in Dubai’s dynamic hospitality landscape.
