About Imperial Building
Imperial Building is a 9-storey residential building in Dubai Silicon Oasis (DSO), developed by Bonyan Emirates Properties. Construction began in March 2007 and was completed by May 2010, per Dubai Land Department-linked records, delivering studio, 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartments in the Nadd Hessa sub-area of DSO.
The Land Department recorded an estimated project value of AED 40,000,000 submitted by the developer prior to construction (the final cost may differ from this estimate). Imperial Building's own Dubai Land Department transaction records confirm covered parking on every recorded sale, and the building is not pet-friendly.

Unit Types
Imperial Building offers studio, 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartments, confirmed via bayut.com's own structured unit-type listing. Studio units run roughly 349 to 375 sq ft, 1-bedroom units roughly 699 to 750 sq ft, and 2-bedroom units around 982 sq ft. Recent Dubai Land Department sale records (studio and 1-bedroom only in the visible 10-record sample of 50 total) show one studio as large as 415 sq ft, slightly above Bayut's stated range. The total number of units in the building is not published by either available source.
Unit mix (studio, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom) and size ranges sourced from bayut.com. Dubai Land Department Sale-type transaction records (propsearch.ae, Building Name field confirmed uniformly 'THE IMPERIAL' across all 10 rendered records, ruling out a shared-registration mixup with an adjacent building) independently confirm studio and 1-bedroom activity and one studio record above Bayut's stated size range (415 sq ft vs 349 to 375 sq ft), disclosed as an unresolved minor discrepancy. No 2-bedroom sale appears in the visible 10-of-50-record sample; not treated as a contradiction given the sampling limit. Total unit count was not found in either source, so none is stated.

Imperial Building offers covered resident parking plus free outdoor parking for visitors, two elevators, 24-hour security with CCTV monitoring, Empower district cooling, a well-equipped gym, a temperature-controlled swimming pool, Wi-Fi and communal gardens. The building is not pet-friendly.

Airbnb & Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Dubai Silicon Oasis is not currently one of Royale Stays' five core managed areas (Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, JBR and Business Bay), so this guide does not claim a Royale Stays management track record at Imperial Building specifically. Bonyan Emirates Properties is a standard residential developer rather than a restricted hotel brand, so there is no confirmed policy barrier to running a licensed holiday home in the building.
Every short-term rental in Dubai requires a DTCM holiday home permit. Royale Stays can arrange the permit application and manage the day-to-day operation, including for owners based overseas, through a service starting from 15% covering furnishing, photography, pricing, check-in and guest communications. See Royale Stays' Airbnb management services, its Dubai holiday home permit guide, or submit your property to get started.
