As the UAE celebrates its 50th year of unification, Rotana will be completing almost three decades of its own UAE journey. Speaking on the occasion of the 50th UAE National Day, Guy Hutchinson, Rotana President and CEO, said: “Being a part of a nation which values humanity, giving and hard work makes us proud to call the UAE our home. It is an honour to be able to celebrate the past five decades of exceptional success in various sectors that has enabled the country to become a leading nation, driven by passion, innovation, and tolerance. We salute the country on its remarkable achievements over the past 50 years and eagerly await the journey that lies ahead.”

On this day the leading hospitality group expresses its pride in the nation, which is a living template of modernity, peace and prosperity, riding high on the world’s stage in almost every field. A perfect occasion to celebrate and reflect the contributions, vision and dreams of the founders of the union.
