The world’s first Warner Bros. hotel will open in Abu Dhabi this November, bringing to life the favourite stories and characters of guests through

unique hospitality experiences that only the rich history and storied legacy of

Warner Bros. could offer.

Miral, Abu Dhabi’s leading curator of magnetic experiences in collaboration with Warner Bros., home to one of the most well-known and successful collections of brands and characters in the world, announced today that The WB Abu Dhabi hotel on Yas Island, operated by Hilton under the Curio Collection brand, will open its doors to guests on November 11.

Featuring one of the finest collections of Warner Bros. archives, guests at the

world’s first Warner Bros. hotel will be treated to a journey of discovery through film and television, enjoying Warner Bros.’ rich history and library of timeless productions at every touchpoint from arrival to check-out.

While dining in one of the five restaurants on the property, guests can listen as the piano from “Westworld” plays a familiar tune. Visitors can stroll through the lobby or admire 360-degree city and sea views alongside their favorite props and costumes from Warner Bros. films and TV shows. And kids and families can ring up one of their favorite Looney Tunes characters for a room service treat brought to them by the Wascally Wabbit, Bugs Bunny himself.

Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak, Chairman of Miral, said: “We are proud to be

launching another first with the opening of the only Warner Bros. hotel in the

world. This new story-driven hospitality experience is set to excite guests from

all over the world, further reinforcing Yas Island’s position as a global

entertainment, leisure and business destination and supporting Abu Dhabi’s

ambition to attract greater numbers of local and international tourists. We are

delighted to be strengthening our partnership with Warner Bros. Themed

Entertainment and Hilton with this unique one-of-a kind experience.”

Pam Lifford, President of WarnerMedia Global Brands and Experiences, said:

“Opening the doors to the first ever Warner Bros. branded hotel is a moment that we have long dreamed of, and it’s truly magnificent. The Warner Bros. Themed Entertainment team and our incredible partners at Miral and Hilton, designed this with fans in mind and have curated an outstanding hospitality experience that gives guests from around the world a unique way to further connect with the iconic Warner Bros. brands, franchises, and characters they love. The WB Abu Dhabi truly is the perfect experience to enjoy and relax while visiting Warner Bros. World right next door!”

Guests of The WB Abu Dhabi hotel begin their story as they pull up to the hotel and are greeted by digital screens that span the height of the building, playing original content created for the hotel. Before entering, the hotel visitors won’t want to miss the iconic “Friends” fountain, guests will then enter the lobby and be drawn to the hotel’s uniquely designed lobby columns. As guests continue their journey, the storytelling experience is further enriched with guest room corridors displaying a curated gallery of artwork.

Each of the hotel’s 257 rooms is furnished with touches that tie to the legacy of rich storytelling that makes Warner Bros. unique. The curated guestroom artwork will be inspired by three themes. The first theme, “From Script to Screen,” highlights standout moments from Warner Bros.’ movies and shows and documents the journey from the written page to the final shot. The second theme, “Artist Confidential,” celebrates a variety of talent in front of and behind the camera in some of Warner Bros.’ favourite productions. The third theme, “The Vault” features rarely seen images from Warner Bros.’ most memorable archives.

Complementing the hotel’s unique design is an extensive and world-class food

and beverage programme featuring five dining options catering to both adults and children. Craft Services, located in the lobby lounge, offers a relaxing coffee break after a busy day, while Sidekicks is the perfect place for socialising and interacting while enjoying a flavourful international menu. For those lounging by the pool in cabanas and sunbeds, The Matinee provides a casual dining option.

Additionally, guests looking to indulge in an elegant dining experience, can visit The Director’s Club, or enjoy an experience at The Overlook, a fabulous lounge with a relaxing infinity pool and beautiful 360-degree city, theme park and sea views.

Jochem-Jan Sleiffer, President, Middle East Africa & Tutkey, Hilton said: “Hilton

is proud to be continuing our partnership with Miral as part of the ongoing

transformation of Yas Island into a world class entertainment destination. We

look forward to the WB Hotel joining our Curio Collection soon, following on

from Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island as the second of our three hotels to be opening on Yas Island with Miral.”

The hotel is home to a host of leisure amenities for guests to enjoy, whether

that’s lounging by the family pool area, working out in the fitness center, relaxing in the spa, exploring the artwork and props or shopping in the Warner Bros. store, the Prop Shop. For younger guests, the Kid’s Club will offer a vibrant and playful space designed to bring Warner Bros.’ characters to life. Some of WB’s world-renowned characters such as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and others will participate in entertaining activities throughout the hotel providing guest memories that will last a lifetime. The hotel also caters for business meetings and events with a large ballroom and expansive meeting room facilities.

The WB Abu Dhabi is located adjacent to the award-winning Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi, the world's largest indoor theme park which features six truly immersive lands, including DC's Metropolis and Gotham City, Cartoon Junction, Bedrock, Dynamite Gulch and Warner Bros. Plaza, along with 29 state-of-the-art exhilarating rides, interactive family-friendly attractions and unique live entertainment. The hotel is also a walking distance from Yas Waterworld and a five-minute drive to all other Yas Island unique attractions and experiences.
