According to an official, several people are still feared trapped in the debris
The project, with its adjacent matching office tower, is among several hotel and resort developments being designed by J/Brice Design throughout the Middle East, Africa and the Pacific.
“Jeffery Ornstein, J/Brice Design founder and CEO, is the go-to hotel fashion leader in the Middle East. He is highly regarded in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Dubai for playing a key role in establishing the Middle East as a bellwether in iconic super-luxury hotels,” Walid A. Al Dubaikel, business development manager for Al Othman Group, said in information made available to Khaleej Times here on Saturday.
“We are targeting the high-end international business market and J/Brice knows how to exceed the expectations of such discriminating guests and place them at the centre of their hotel experience,” he added.
“Jeffery understands and embraces the culture of the Middle East, while bringing his international perspective to the region,” said Al Dubaikel.
Ornstein said J/Brice is honoured for the role it has been granted by Al Othman Group to bring world attention on the Middle East as an arbiter of design in the world — indeed for the 2010 decade.
According to Ornstein, the 19-story, neo-modern twin-structure will include 218 guestrooms plus a single royal suite, two presidential suites and two executive suites.
There will be two penthouse residences on the top floor and 16 luxury apartments or flats on floors 15 through 18 — all of which will have superb views of the city.
The project also includes a separate structure with two, 15,000 square-foot ballrooms comprising entire floors that will accommodate major social and business events.
