The lifestyle hotel will offer 15 restaurants, including ROKA, the contemporary Japanese robatayaki restaurant.
With awe-inspiring originality the Opus spans 250,000 sq ft., comprising of two separate towers that connect in the form of a cube but with a ‘carved’ central void where the centre of the building provides unexpected and dramatic views of the exterior.

ME Dubai’s facilities and Aura service will also be extended to the owners of the exclusive serviced apartments located on the upper floors, including four penthouses with private roof terraces.
