Ras Al Khaimah continues to evolve as one of the UAE’s most exciting destinations, and a new global name is joining its lineup. Hard Rock Hotel and Residences Ras Al Khaimah is set to open in 2028, marking the brand’s first entry into the emirate. Located in the Beach District near Al Marjan Island, the property will feature 300 hotel rooms and 395 branded residences, offering a blend of luxury hospitality and long-term living.

Designed as a full-fledged entertainment destination, the hotel will stay true to Hard Rock’s signature spirit of energy and style. Guests can expect a collection of dining experiences, a rooftop bar, a beach club, and multiple swimming pools. The resort will also include a spa, fitness centre, and versatile spaces for events and conferences all crafted to create a vibrant atmosphere along Ras Al Khaimah’s coast.

Hard Rock’s expansion into Ras Al Khaimah is part of a broader regional strategy, with new openings planned across the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia through a partnership with Palladium Hotel Group. Known for its iconic music-inspired design, memorabilia, and live performances, Hard Rock Hotels bring a dynamic edge to every destination. With properties in nearly 80 countries, the brand continues to merge lifestyle, entertainment, and hospitality in one distinctive experience.
