Depa to fit out Rose Rotana tower

Depa, the Middle East’s premier hotel interiors contracting company, has clinched a Dh61 million ($16.6 million) contract with the Abdullah Bin Brook Group for the implementation of the interior work of Rose Rotana Suites in Dubai, believed to be the world’s tallest serviced apartments tower.

Under the deal, Depa will supply and furnish the 68-storey tower with lavish furnishings, elegant fixtures and equipment.
To soar 333 m above Dubai’s Sheikh Zayed Road, the Rose Rotana Suites tower is set for completion in 2006.
And in a unique and innovative step, Depa, in association with its local and international financing institutional partners, is going to arrange the necessary financing to cover the majority of the fit-out and furniture, fixtures and equipment (FF&E) contract value
“We are delighted to have been selected to undertake the execution of the FF&E works on the Rose Rotana Suites, given the building's headline-making distinction among Dubai's stunning skyscraper skyline,” says a spokesman.
Depa’s latest assignment will generate 410 different types of studios and 72 suites of various classes.
The tower, with its sleek steel, glass structure and its soaring height in relation to its relatively small footprint of 10,000 m has required that the architect/consultant Khatib & Alami, employ the most sophisticated technology and refined architectural designs to accomplish the project.
The Arab Construction Company (ACC) has been assigned as lead contractor on the project which is based on an original interior design by IDEA Art Decoration.

me neither
i think there still is that huge hole just like in december
the exterior looks very extravagant and so is the interior for about 70 floors!
it takes even more time to finish a hotel than a residential tower!

let me state the hotel will open in mid 2007!

^ Well they need to work on it 24/7, they can get it done. I mean here in Bahrain we got a 47 story tower topped out in a year, fast-track implementation. Am not sure of the interiors but the building itself can be finished if you work properly from now.

well, let's take chelsea tower for example
i remember ground worls for this tower have been finished in october 2003 and then it started to rise and was topped out in february 2005. rose rotana is much taller so it might take 20 months to being topped out, when chelsea needed almost 17 months! this doesn't include the ground works! and then put 3 or 4 months on top to finish the tower.

i guess the first level will be started in april, then 20 months to construct the tower and bang we already have dec 2006. plus 3 or 4 months working on the interior!

I'd assume structural work maybe completed by dec 2006 and definately not the fittings unless they want to install somethin that's cheap quality, which i'll highly doubt. How much does this tower cost again? Was it around $80 million?
