Dubai’s Address Downtown hotel, which was damaged by an infamous fire on New Year’s Eve 2015, has opened its doors, Emaar Hospitality said today in a statement.

The 63-storey hotel and residential tower has undergone a major refurbishment, including increasing the number of rooms and suits to 220 from 196.

“With the opening of Address Downtown, Emaar is bringing to life a crowning glory in its hotel assets. Working with world-leading designers and consultants, the all-new Address Downtown ushers in an exceptional lifestyle choice and set new standards in luxury hospitality. The hotel will continue to uphold its distinctive positioning of ‘where life happens’,” Olivier Harnisch, Chief Executive Officer of Emaar Hospitality Group, said.

In February 2017, Emaar said it will recover AED1.22 billion ($332.1 million) from an insurance claim after the fire, which was caused by an electrical short circuit. There were no deaths reported.

Emaar Hospitality Group also operates Address Boulevard, Address Dubai Mall, Palace Downtown, Vida Downtown and Manzil Downtown in Downtown Dubai.
