Conrad Hotels & Resorts, part of the world-renowned Hilton brand, has officially made its debut in Bahrain with the grand opening of Conrad Bahrain Financial Harbour. Nestled in the heart of Manama’s bustling financial district, this luxurious property brings a new level of refined hospitality to the island nation known as the “Pearl of the Gulf.”
With this launch, Bahrain welcomes not only a globally recognized name in upscale travel but also a destination that blends modern luxury with deep cultural roots and contemporary design.
Rising Above Manama: A New Icon of Luxury
Situated in the striking SAYACORP Tower, the hotel offers guests sweeping views of the Arabian Gulf and the vibrant skyline of Bahrain’s capital. With 98 elegant accommodations, including one, two, and three-bedroom residential-style suites and expansive four-bedroom penthouses, Conrad Bahrain is more than a hotel—it’s a home away from home for luxury travelers.
Each suite features floor-to-ceiling windows, full gourmet kitchens, designer furnishings, and high-end appliances. Guests can also enjoy spacious living areas and modern bathrooms complete with walk-in rain showers. Those staying in the penthouses will be treated to private outdoor swimming pools—a rare offering even among Bahrain’s top-tier hotels.
To elevate the experience, a dedicated Conrad concierge is available for each guest, ensuring personalized service and attention to detail from check-in to departure.
Elevated Dining and Experiences
One of the hotel’s standout features is its dining scene. For the first time ever in Bahrain, guests can enjoy SUSHISAMBA, a globally recognized restaurant concept that blends Japanese, Brazilian, and Peruvian cuisines into one unforgettable menu. Located on the hotel’s rooftop, SUSHISAMBA is as much a visual experience as it is a culinary one, offering panoramic views of Manama’s skyline accompanied by DJ performances and a vibrant atmosphere.
The hotel also features Café Tomo, located in the lobby—a cozy yet upscale spot serving coffee, tea, pastries, and light bites with a flair for creativity and abundance. Meanwhile, the Trade Room, styled as a chic, library-inspired bar, offers an inviting space for business discussions, casual conversations, or after-hours cocktails. Its design reflects Bahrain’s long-standing history as a financial hub while presenting a modern twist on luxury.
Wellness, Comfort, and Sophistication
For those seeking relaxation or a wellness-focused stay, the hotel does not disappoint. Guests can unwind at the rooftop infinity pool, which provides 360-degree views of the city and surrounding sea—a perfect backdrop for both daytime lounging and evening cocktails.
Fitness-minded guests can visit the 24-hour fitness center, complete with the latest equipment. The hotel also features separate men’s and women’s steam rooms and saunas, providing a tranquil space to rejuvenate after a long day.
A Cultural Touch in Every Corner
Conrad Bahrain has gone to great lengths to integrate Bahraini culture into its design and guest experience. Art plays a central role in the hotel’s aesthetic, with locally curated artwork and design elements placed throughout the building. These artistic touches create a cultural bridge between local traditions and modern luxury.
Three meeting rooms—each named after iconic symbols of Bahrain’s heritage—offer flexible spaces for events and business gatherings. The Bab Al Bahrain Room, Harbour Room, and 1920 Room provide high-tech facilities within a culturally rich setting, making them ideal for everything from corporate presentations to private celebrations.
A Milestone for Hilton in Bahrain
This opening marks a significant expansion of Hilton’s footprint in Bahrain. Guy Hutchinson, President of Hilton for the Middle East and Africa, emphasized the importance of the launch, stating, “We are delighted to start welcoming guests to Conrad Bahrain Financial Harbour. This is our third Hilton property in Bahrain and a first for the Conrad brand here.”
He added, “Each room in the hotel is a suite, giving guests the feeling of being at home while enjoying high-end amenities, intuitive service, and luxurious facilities. We are confident this hotel will become a top destination for both international and local travelers.”
Designed for Modern Travelers
Whether you’re a business traveler seeking efficient comfort, a couple looking for a romantic weekend getaway, or a family exploring the region, the hotel’s offerings suit all kinds of visitors. The combination of residential-style living, world-class dining, and thoughtful design makes the Conrad Bahrain Financial Harbour a compelling choice for short- and long-term stays.
Part of the Hilton Honors Family
Guests staying at the hotel can also enjoy the benefits of the Hilton Honors loyalty program. Members who book directly through Hilton channels gain access to exclusive perks like flexible booking, contactless check-in, digital room keys, and reward points redeemable for free nights across Hilton’s global portfolio.
Strategic Location in a Growing Destination
Bahrain has seen steady growth in its tourism and hospitality sectors, driven by its rich history, warm climate, and growing reputation as a regional hub for finance and entertainment. The opening of the Conrad Bahrain Financial Harbour fits perfectly into this upward trend, offering world-class service right in the heart of the action.
Its location in the Financial Harbour district places it close to Bahrain’s top attractions, including Bahrain National Museum, The Avenues Mall, Bab Al Bahrain, and the city’s main business centers. The property is also a short drive from Bahrain International Airport, making it ideal for both business and leisure travelers arriving from around the globe.
