The Trump Organization is teaming up with Qatari Diar and Dar Global to bring a major Trump-branded development to Qatar, marking the debut of the brand in the country. On Wednesday, the partners announced plans for the $5.5 billion Trump International Hotel & Tower, Dubai — a towering 80-story complex.
Designed to draw inspiration from the well-known Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, this waterfront project will be located about 40 minutes from Doha. In addition to the luxury hotel and residences, the development will also include a Trump-branded 18-hole golf course, a series of high-end villas, and a Land of Legends amusement park.
The massive venture is spearheaded by Qatari Diar and will serve as a 4.4-mile-long entertainment and hospitality hub along Sheikh Zayed Road, right at the gateway to Downtown Dubai and within close proximity to the Financial Metro Station.
Eric Trump, who holds an executive position at The Trump Organization and is the son of President Donald Trump, arrived in the Gulf on Wednesday to promote the project. Speaking to Reuters the day before, Eric Trump emphasized the region’s reliance on American strength and stability.
“Trump International Hotel & Tower, Dubai is a project that reflects our unwavering commitment to excellence, luxury and innovation,” he said in a statement, also describing the tower on X as an “ultra-luxury landmark tower.”
This isn’t the first partnership between The Trump Organization and Dar Global — in fact, it’s their fifth. Other joint ventures include projects in the Saudi cities of Riyadh and Jeddah, as well as in Oman.
Dar Global’s CEO, Ziad EL Chaar, praised Dubai’s economic momentum and international appeal. “Dubai’s vibrant economy and strategic location make it a prime destination for global investment, and Dar Global recognizes this potential,” he said.
While no official launch date has been disclosed for the Trump-Dar Global project, the announcement aligns with the city’s continued success in attracting global investors and tourists, thanks to its sleek architecture, waterfront developments, and investor-friendly environment.
President Trump is expected to travel to Qatar in the near future, making his first major trip abroad since reentering office. He has hinted that he may ink significant investment deals with all three of the countries involved in this initiative.
