IHG will administer the CTE d’Azur Monaco Hotel in Dubai, the only assignment of operational property in the task of the heart of Europe, using its Voco logo for a Cushy Regenener that ends until the end of the quarter. The center of Europe is the component of the world, an archipelago off the coast of Dubai, aimed at recreating countries in the synthetic islands. Despite the challenges, IHG is the only hotels that supports development, which has faced delays and controversies that remains attached to its final tactile objective of 2026.
IHG will be responsible for the control of the Côte d’Azur Monaco hotel in Dubai, the only operational assets in the Heart of Europe project. The center of Europe dates back to 2008 and remains in our minds to open all its 20 planned hotels, even 16 years later.

The logo replacement will be completed before the end of the quarter and will be known as Voco Monaco Dubai.
To date, IHG is the only hotel operator for the progression of the heart of Europe, which one day plans to have a wide diversity of known hotel players at the head of their hotels. In November 2023, IHG signed a contract to manage the Marbella hotel, which will open its doors in 2026, under its superior conversion mark, vignettes collection.
The Heart of Europe is a component of a larger development named The World — an archipelago project situated off the Dubai coast. The overarching goal is to replicate the world map through the creation of individual man-made islands, each representing a specific country. The entire project encompasses 300 islands, with six dedicated to The Heart of Europe.
In a country that calls the highest construction in the environment of global and largest purchases in the global environment, visitors are defeated through the selection and full of superlatives. The medium in Europe seeks to recreate the continent miniature with consumers who use hotels in a specific country.
In the Marbella hotel that is offered, for example, the Will Speak Spanish and the clocks will be established in Spanish.
“We are building anything that is not yet there. We want 1,000 concepts for things that are not available in tourists in Dubai,” said Kleinienst Group President Josef Kleiniet, in an interview with Skift.
For the Hotel Monaco, which opened in 2022, Kleinienst requests that the hotel has been in cushy opening all this time, with the aim of handing it over to a reception operator.
“We’re not a hotel business,” Kleinieniest said. We have made the decision to manage [ourselves] during the candy opening periods. We need to open as soon as possible, but once the comfortable opening is over, we will put the hotels back to the operators. »»
The chairman told Skift that the Monaco hotel has been a challenge to run, and perhaps opened too soon, but that the company had to start welcoming guests so it could build its logistics teams.
“Monaco has the tourist tricks, it is our first hotel and only 10 others under structure. Few brands would like it, so it’s complicated. But it’s manageable. The sound of the structure can’t be as loud as a beach, but it’s hard to stay away from the hotel,” Kleinienst said.
“Is it perfect? No. Would we have opened later?Yes and no. We are looking to expand our logistics as soon as possible,” he said.
Kleiniert and Central Europe have had the right component of disorders since their inception 16 years ago. In 2013, Kleiniert continued through the master developer of the Nakheel World Islands for failing to pay for his islands on time. The case was settled amicably.
In 2019, the promoters were criticized for promising molds to the investors of central Europe a citizenship regime through investment.
“Beyond the apparent moral concerns, this poses a serious security threat to Moldova and the entire Schengen region in which it is visa-free,” said Naomi Hirst, an investigator for the global witness of the anti-corruption group, quoted in the Daily Mail. “We take a look at the goal of citizenship and Europe. “
In addition, a spokesperson for the European Commission told the UK magazine that “the Commission largely monitored the effect of the program introduced in November [Moldova] because it may provide migration and security risks. “
The program has been discussed through the Europe Center ever since.
Apart from that, the task has been plagued through delays, unusual in Dubai, but few last as much as the center of the final tactile dates of Europe have occurred over the years, the new final line being 2026.
“The majority have delays, died for a while and resurrect,” said Haitham Mattar, managing director – India, the Middle East and Africa, Skift IHG Hotels
