Nation Towers is the name of a building complex with two skyscrapers in Abu Dhabi , the capital of the United Arab Emirates .
The Nation Towers are located directly on the Corniche of Abu Dhabi. The larger building, called Nation Towers Residential Lofts , has 64 stories. In the smaller building ( St. Regis Luxury Hotel ), which extends over 51 floors, there is a five-star hotel with 283 rooms. The complex was completed in 2013 and houses apartments, office space, a shopping center and a beach club. This can be reached through an air-conditioned tunnel that runs below the coastal road.
The two buildings are connected to each other at a height of 202.5 meters by a 400-ton steel bridge between floors 50 and 54. The skybridge is the highest in the world.
The building complex went into operation at the beginning of 2013.
