Hotel is home to Bahrain's most renowned restaurant

Hospitality management company Gulf Hotels Group and Marriott International have agreed a partnership to add Gulf Hotel Bahrain to the Autograph Collection Hotels group.

The hotel is home to Bahrain's most highly acclaimed restaurant Fusions by Tala, which ranks at number nine on the 2024 Middle East & North Africa’s 50 Best Restaurants.

The partnership, formalised during the recent Future Hospitality Summit in Dubai, sees the Bahrain hotel join 300 others in the Autograph Collection global portfolio.

Through this collaboration, Gulf Hotel Bahrain will have access to Marriott's global systems and loyalty programme, Marriott Bonvoy, while remaining under the full management of Gulf Hotels Group and retaining its name.

As part of the agreement, the hotel will undergo a full renovation and brand positioning process over the next three years aimed at delivering “best-in-class comfort and standards whilst retaining the unique essence of the hotel’s great history and heritage”.

The phased renovation project will involve a complete refurbishment of the hotel's interior, including guest rooms, lobby area, entrance, amenities and recreation facilities.

Gulf Hotels Group CEO Ahmed Janahi said: “Gulf Hotel Bahrain is a leading landmark in the hospitality sector in the Kingdom, embodying the highest standards of service and excellence.

“This signing represents a strategic move that enhances the hotel’s rich legacy. Our ongoing commitment to excellence, combined with our strategic collaboration with Marriott International, marks the beginning of a new chapter in the history of Gulf Hotel.”
