Dubai Holding, a diversified global investment company with operations in 13 countries, has acquired full ownership of The Westin Paris – Vendome after acquiring Henderson Park’s stake in the property.

The hotel, with its ultra-prime location, is one of the most sought-after real estate assets in Paris. It was built in 1878.

Henderson Park and Dubai Holding had acquired the iconic hotel in a joint venture back in 2018.

The acquisition of this property further strengthens Dubai Holding’s extensive portfolio of world-class assets in key gateway locations.

In addition, it supports the Group’s long-term strategy of global expansion that is focused on boosting its presence in strategic destinations across the world, including North America, the Middle East, Europe and Asia.

Overlooking the Jardin des Tuileries, the River Seine and the Eiffel Tower – and a few steps away from Place Vendome, Place de la Concorde, Avenue des Champs Elysees and Le Louvre Museum – the historic setting of the property offers visitors an unparalleled entry to the City of Lights.

The property occupies an area of over 32,000 square metres and houses more than 400 rooms and suites.

The Westin Paris - Vendome will continue to operate in partnership with the Marriott International group, under The Westin brand and with the support of Sophos Hotel.

Dubai Holding will soon begin to consider future plans for the property after the Paris Olympics in 2024.
