Sofitel Residences Downtown Dubai

Under construction

The residences

The name licensed to this project and carried on the building. A brand is not a company: it holds no title, builds nothing and runs nothing.
Sofitel
The business the brand comes from — hotel, fashion, design, automotive, restaurant, club, or a developer’s own name.
Hotel
How many separately titled homes this project sells, counting every kind it sells. Where it sells more than one kind, each is named and its own count given.
70
The kinds of home offered — villas, condos, penthouses, lots — and how they break down. Not how many, and not what interest is sold.
1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments, with 4 and 5-bedroom penthouses
Whether a hotel shares the site, the building is mixed-use, or it is residences only.
Residences only, no hotel

Not recorded is a statement about this register: no sourced value is held for these. It is never a claim that anyone withheld them.

Who is behind it

The company that runs properties under this project’s brand and sets the standards carried under it. It need not own the name — who owns it is the brand licensor.
Accor
The party that promotes the project and carries it through to delivery. May also hold title to part of it — being one does not make it the other.
Azha PropertiesThe tracker page separately names the developing entity "Azha Downtown Residences", which reads as a project-level entity rather than a different company. Only the name appearing on Accor's own release is recorded here.
The practice or individual who designed the building.
Eng. Adnan SaffariniNamed on the tracker only; not corroborated by any other opened page.

How this project is structuredAzha Properties is the developer of Sofitel's first branded residences in the UAE. Accor frames the residential offer through its Accor One Living platform rather than naming a separate company to run the building. Dubai Sotheby's International Realty supports sales and marketing only.
