The maiden hotel under The First Group’s new lifestyle brand has officially opened
Dubai-: The First Collection at Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC) has officially opened, bringing with it an exciting addition to the hospitality scene in this up-and-coming precinct. Ideally positioned for business and leisure travellers, the 40-storey hotel features 491 spacious guestrooms and a host of premium facilities, including an expansive swimming pool and sundeck, a gymnasium, spa treatment rooms, and unique dining experiences that will establish the hotel as a popular lifestyle destination.
George Ghaly, Hotel Manager of The First Collection at JVC, comments:
“We’re thrilled to announce that The First Collection at JVC is open and we look forward to welcoming both the community and international guests to our four-star urban oasis. Whether staying for business or leisure, our world-class facilities will provide guests with a memorable experience, while the hotel’s central location makes it an ideal choice to discover Dubai. We’re only a 20-minute drive from Dubai’s famed coastline, Downtown Dubai, and Dubai South, which is home to the Expo 2020 Dubai precinct.”
The hotel opening also marks some highly anticipated additions to the licensed restaurant offering in Jumeirah Village Circle. Headlining its dining venues, Santè Ria Restaurant & Bar is a Latino-inspired eatery that serves fresh flavours embodying the heart and soul of South America. A must-try dish is Tiradito Al Aji Amarillo, a Peruvian-style cured sea bass with coriander and sweet potato. The venue’s selection of beverages from the region are not to be missed, along with the panoramic city views from the terrace.
Located on the Mezzanine level of the hotel, Village Bistro is a vibrant, family-friendly venue
that features an extensive à la carte menu inspired by cuisine from the South of France. Guests will also enjoy ambient alfresco dining on the terrace, along with live music and daily specials that will be launching soon.
“The dining offering at The First Collection at JVC combines exceptional quality with great value-for-money, reinforcing the brand’s reputation for its outstanding cuisine,” comments Francois
Van Der Merwe, Food & Beverage Director at The First Collection at Jumeirah Village Circle.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll be rolling out a number of exciting events, from brunches and themed nights to a host of special offers,” says Van Der Merwe.
