Nobu Hospitality plans bring the first Nobu residences and restaurant to Kuwait at Hessah Plaza, a vibrant, walkable retail and dining destination within the Hessah District Project.

The development, partnership with United Real Estate Company (URC), the real estate arm of KIPCO Group, and Dhaliliyah Company, will feature 90 exclusive luxury serviced residences, flexible meeting and event spaces, and a signature Nobu restaurant with sweeping views of the Arabian Gulf.
