The Warwick Hotel Dubai, UAE, which opened 14 April earlier this year, has unveiled its new spa and health club, which is bidding to cash in on the city's bustling business sector.

Situated within walking distance of the Dubai Financial Centre and only two stops on the metro subway from the Dubai World Trade Exhibition Centre, the wellness facility is ideally placed to offer relaxation treatments to busy professionals and draw footfall from business conferences at the hotel.

Located on the 45th floor of the 47-storey four-star property, the Kirana Spa & Health Club comprises six treatment rooms, indoor showers, steamrooms, whirlpool and sauna. The spa also includes a luxury-style salon, while there is a fitness centre onsite with a tennis court, as well as a rooftop pool.

A range of treatments are available including four hands, bamboo and hot stone massage in addition to facials, body scrubs and wraps. Natural ingredients used in therapies include green tea, jasmine, aloe vera, rose extracts, coconut, argan oil, chocolate, bamboo salt, Moroccan clay and tanaka leaf powder, according to Hoteliermiddleeast.com.

In keeping with Islamic cultural customs, the hotel has a ladies only floor.

The property also features four dining and beverage venues and meeting space for 6 to 60 people.

Wholly-owned by Damas Real estate, Warwick International Hotels (WIH) signed a management agreement for the 357-bedroom hotel in 2013.

According to a statement by WIH, the opening of the hotel in April marked a major step in the development of the company itself, having established its presence in the Middle East in 2012.

This year WIH will continue to expand in the Middle East with the Babylon Warwick Hotel in Iraq and one in Qatar – the Warwick Doha Hotel.

In July, WIH also announced plans to manage a new resort in the Caribbean, which is set to have a fitness centre and spa in addition to a 330,000 US gallon (1,249 cubic metre) free-form freshwater pool.
