Located behind Sheikh Zayed Road, Jumeirah Garden City offers residents direct access to major business and leisure hotspots like Downtown Dubai, DIFC, and Jumeirah Beach. Its central location, combined with growing demand for branded residences, positions the area as a future hotspot for investors and residents alike.
As a long-standing player in Dubai’s real estate sector, Prem Gopalani, Partner, WestF5, emphasized the strategic importance and value that a hospitality leader like Hilton can bring. “Jumeirah Garden City is a rising star in Dubai’s urban landscape, with its central location, infrastructure upgrades, and alignment with Dubai’s 2040 Urban Master Plan.
