Sanipex Group, a leading supplier of bathroom materials, tiles and plumbing products in the Middle East, is to supply custom-made bathtubs for the Marriott Hotel Group’s new Edition hotel in Abu Dhabi.

Due to open its doors in 2017, the five-star property will be the first ‘Edition’ brand to open in the Middle East, aiming to set new benchmarks in the boutique lifestyle hotel category. 

Each of the 200 guest bathrooms in Edition Abu Dhabi will feature a freestanding bath from Bagnodesign, custom-crafted from Bagnotec Stone, a blend of stone, marble and polymer resin solutions.

 Hard-wearing, durable and simple to clean, the material is also smooth to the touch, ensuring a comfortable bathing experience that will leave hotel guests feeling relaxed and revived, Sanipex stated. With a generous capacity, the double-ended bath features soft, rounded curves and an overall elegant design, making it a centrepiece of each of the hotel’s bathrooms, it added.

Guy Wilson, the managing director (projects) at Sanipex Group, said: “We are delighted to be providing baths made from our luxurious composite stone for this prestigious project in Abu Dhabi.”

“Guests booking into Edition hotels can expect an unprecedented level of luxury throughout their stay and Bagnodesign is able to help the hotel chain deliver on this promise with a product that is not only beautiful to look at, but also fulfils all the practical requirements that are so important in hotel bathroom design too,” he added.
