AHS Twin Towers: the former Shangri-La on Sheikh Zayed Road reopens as Grade A offices

Gensler has converted a hotel landmark of two decades into 48 levels of offices that divide into two, four or nine suites. AED 3,850 to 4,650 per sq ft, from AED 7.2m, shell and core, 50/50 plan, handover June 2028.

AHS Properties has launched AHS Twin Towers on Sheikh Zayed Road, a commercial address of Grade A offices in the towers that stood for more than two decades as the Shangri-La Hotel. Gensler has drawn the conversion, replacing the hotel facade with a vertical expression the brochure describes as taken from desert dune forms, and turning the interior over to offices on levels 02 to 49.

The point of the building is flexibility of ownership rather than a single office size. A floor plate can be held whole or divided into two, four or nine private suites, and the brochure sets out four products accordingly.

Office type Area Layout
Individual 1,872 – 2,407 sq ft 9-split floor
Executive 4,173 – 5,414 sq ft 4-split floor
Grand 8,477 – 9,823 sq ft Half floor
Ultra Grand 17,007 – 17,563 sq ft Full floor

Pricing is quoted at AED 3,850 to 4,650 per sq ft, with offices from AED 7.2m, and the offices are sold shell and core, so the fit-out is the buyer's. The payment plan is a 50/50: 5% on reservation, 20% on signing by 15 December 2026 alongside the 4% DLD fee, then 10%, 5% and 10% through 2027, and the remaining 50% at handover on 30 June 2028.

Roughly a third of the building is given over to things other than desks. The brochure counts more than 30,000 sq ft of wellness and fitness, over 12,000 sq ft of culinary space and more than 11,000 sq ft on the roof. That covers a lap pool, spa and thermal bathing, yoga and Pilates studios, a gourmet food hall, a cigar lounge, a golf simulator, and rooftop dining beneath a sky garden. A business lounge and a reception on each office floor sit alongside them.

Position is the other half of the case. The brochure puts Financial Centre Metro two minutes away, DIFC and Downtown at three, the World Trade Centre and Emirates Towers at five, and Dubai International Airport at fifteen.

The unit list has not been issued yet. We hold the project as a launch and will publish availability, floor-by-floor areas and plans as soon as the developer releases them.
