Festive season is almost here, and Sofitel Dubai Downtown has a sleighful of spectacular events planned for December.
The hotel’s enchanting “Art de Noel” returns in its second edition this season, and will see the property turn into a winter wonderland with an elegant French twist.
Guests can look forward to extravagant decorations, Instagram-perfect photo opps throughout the hotel, a life-size gingerbread house, and much more. Sofitel Dubai Downtown’s restaurants will also be preparing seasonal French delicacies.
And when New Year’s Eve comes around, the hotel has two mesmerising themed nights to choose from – Alice In Wonderland & Les Nuits Parisiennes.
