Quick Answer · Dubai South
A hotel renovation in Dubai South costs AED 300,000–900,000 for a guest-room refurbishment programme, AED 900,000–3,000,000 for a full hotel renovation, and AED 3M+ for a premium/resort refurbishment — driven by key count, FF&E and MEP. Work is phased floor-by-floor around live operation. Dubai South hotels need municipality, Civil Defence and authority approvals, handled in-house. Brand-standard FF&E, fixed price, 3-year warranty.
After 800+ Dubai projects we see the same problems in Dubai South again and again. Here's what goes wrong — and how we fix every one.
You can't close a Dubai South hotel. We phase floor-by-floor and zone-by-zone so guests stay and revenue continues.
Tired rooms drop rates and ratings. We refurbish to brand standard and lift the guest experience.
Operators demand exact brand standards. We deliver to spec, coordinating FF&E and OS&E.
