Nobu Hospitality CEO Trevor Horwell said: “We are thrilled to be partnering with such a highly recognised company as Aldar, one of the most prominent real estate developers in the region, who share our vision for creating remarkable destination projects and lifestyle experiences.

“This is an exciting time for Saadiyat Island, which has become one of the world’s most desirable leisure destinations, and we look forward to offering our Nobu guests access to its incredible landscapes, cuisine, and culture.”

In addition to the new hotel, Nobu and Alder will develop the first branded Nobu Residences in the Middle East.
