Heritage Built on Dubai’s Skyline
Starting with Dubai’s first five-star hotel in 1977, Carlton leveraged early presence and strategic real estate to become a trusted brand blending regional heritage with global standards
Growth via Ownership & Partnership
By directly managing flagship properties in Dubai while partnering with brands like Sheraton and Marriott on franchise or management contracts, Carlton achieves flexibility and risk mitigation while expanding its footprint
Select International Reach
Hotels in Europe (Czech Republic, Jordan) under standalone or partnership agreements show regional diversification. Carlton avoids overextension, maintaining boutique presence in key markets
Pakistan Legacy, But No Active Chain
Carlton Hotel Karachi was taken over by Venus Group in 2004, with upgrade plans that didn’t materialize into a sustained Carlton presence in Pakistan—meaning no current franchising or brand-linked hotels operate locally
