Dream Hotel Group of New York signed its first Middle Eastern hotel in Doha, Qatar, with Qatar-based Al Alfia Holding, part of US$1.5 billion in developments announced today. The company also said it will develop five other hotels in the U.S., including two in New York.
“These six new developments double the footprint of our founding brand and give our loyal guests many more options to explore the other side of themselves,” said Dream Hotel Group CEO Jay Stein.
