LEVA HOTELS

Established in 2019, LEVA is a vibrant lifestyle hotel concept designed to bring a fresh and accessible perspective to the hospitality industry.

After 25 years with some of the world’s largest hotel chains, JS Anand felt a growing desire to revive the vibrant energy of travel from his youth. He missed the unique experiences and lively atmosphere of smaller, personal hotels, distinct from the efficiency-driven, generic corporate hotels. While large hotels often overlook the small details that make a big difference, and smaller budget hotels may lack comfort and luxury, Anand envisioned a space that combined curiosity with sophistication, energy with boutique charm. Thus, LEVA was born—a place where luxury and care from boutique hotels meet a dynamic, youthful vibe, creating an affordable yet sophisticated and personal environment for exploration and experiences.

The brand’s name, derived from the Latin word “levatio,” meaning comfort and solace, reflects its ethos. LEVA’s flagship property, LEVA Mazaya Centre in Dubai, quickly gained a dedicated following and achieved the number one spot on TripAdvisor just three years after opening. The hotel exemplifies LEVA’s ability to rapidly and effectively transform properties, as evidenced by its team turning a bare concrete space into a fully operational hotel in just six weeks, ready to welcome its first guests.
