Kleindienst Group Unveils New Design For Hôtel Cannes At The Heart Of Europe
Kleindienst Group, the European-origin conglomerate with a diverse portfolio spanning real estate development, construction, hospitality, sustainable energy and marine engineering, is unveiling the new design concept for its family friendly Hôtel Cannes, located within the Côte d’Azur Hotel at The Heart of Europe on the World Islands. Projected to open in Q3 2026, Hôtel Cannes embodies Kleindienst Group’s vision of experience-led luxury – merging cultural storytelling, design excellence, and destination-driven hospitality.
The property will feature 215 rooms and suites, offering an immersive journey inspired by the spirit and allure of the French Riviera. The refreshed design brings a modern yet nostalgic expression of coastal living – blending European elegance, warm Mediterranean charm, and the flair of Cannes’ golden age.
Concept and Design
Guided by conceptual pillars that celebrate exploration, sensory indulgence, and a playful yet refined spirit, the new vision for the Hôtel Cannes is designed for modern travellers seeking story, substance, and style. Inspired by the sun-drenched lifestyle and social energy of Cannes, the interiors reinterpret coastal living through light-infused materials, rich textures, and emotive geometry. The design language evokes a world of leisure and discovery – where every detail tells a story.
Lobby & Marché Experience
At the heart of Hôtel Cannes’ design lies its lively Marché which will be a social rendez-vous spot reflecting the joie de vivre of the Riviera. The curated marketplace (Marché) will infuse the colours and aromas of Marché Forville. With artisanal bakeries, oyster counters, and rotating European food concepts, the Marché captures Cannes’ spirit of conviviality and sensory pleasure, enriched with modern European design and warm Mediterranean hues.
Rooms & Suites
Hôtel Cannes’ spaces exude refined Mediterranean elegance with a contemporary twist. Interiors feature turquoise and sand tones inspired by the Côte d’Azur, complemented by light woods, linen textures, and handcrafted ceramics. The sea-facing rooms offer panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf, while subtle design cues with lighting details and tactile fabrics celebrate Cannes’ cultural heritage and romantic allure.
A Design Evolution with Strategic Vision
The reimagined Hôtel Cannes’ interiors mark the next chapter in The Heart of Europe’s evolution as a world-class hospitality destination, reinforcing Kleindienst Group’s commitment to crafting culturally resonant, design-led journeys and guest centred experiences. Designed to appeal to the new generation of global travellers – curious, cultured, and connected – Hôtel Cannes combines strong lifestyle positioning with exceptional investment potential.
Set against panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf, the property joins voco Dubai Monaco and voco Dubai Nice – The Heart of Europe to complement the Riviera-inspired hospitality ensemble within the Côte d’Azur Hotel. Hôtel Cannes is scheduled to open its doors in Q3 2026, adding a new dimension of style, culture, and narrative to the World Islands.
Parisa Seif, Managing Partner at Kleindienst Group said: “The new design of Hôtel Cannes reflects our focus on bringing thoughtful, design-led hospitality to Dubai. By combining the timeless glamour of the French Riviera with modern craftsmanship and warmth, we’re creating a hotel that feels both European in spirit and authentic to its coastal setting. This launch comes at an important time, as Dubai continues to grow as one of the world’s leading destinations for design, travel, and experiential luxury.”
