Dubai is famous for its stunning architecture, luxury shopping, and high-end hotels. But there’s another side to the city that’s gaining traction: wellness tourism. According to Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism , health and wellbeing tourism is one of the fastest-growing sectors, driven by both local and international interest.

From Ayurvedic retreats to state-of-the-art fitness centres, the city’s wellness offerings are expanding rapidly. I’ve seen it firsthand, and after a stay at Siro One Za’abeel, I’m convinced that this futuristic wellness experience is among Dubai’s finest. Here’s why.

.. Siro One Za’abeel exemplifies how Dubai’s health and wellbeing scene is evolving.

This place isn’t just another high-end hotel; it’s a hub dedicated to holistic wellness, integrating luxury with science-backed treatments. Dubai’s wellness tourism has seen a 15 per cent increase in visitors over the past two years. The city offers a mix of advanced technology, world-class fitness facilities, and ancient holistic practices.

The Siro hotel stands out by merging technology with wellness through its five key pillars: fitness, nutrition, sleep, recovery, and mindfulness. Siro One Za’abeel is part of the Siro brand, a relatively new addition to Dubai’s luxury hotel scene, after opening at the start of 2024. The hotel is situated in the One Za’abeel Tower, an architectural marvel that holds the record for the world’s highest-occupied building floor.
