We sat down with Tamer Farouq, General Manager of Hilton Bahrain, to find out more about The Dome by STC and the upscale hotel’s Green Ramadan initiative.


What inspired the creation of The Dome by STC at Hilton Bahrain this year?

Since opening, Hilton Bahrain’s Iftars and Ghabgas have been a huge success. This year, we wanted to take it to the next level—bigger, better, and more memorable. The Dome by STC offers a magical setting with a diverse range of global cuisines, bringing “the world at your plate” in a way that celebrates different cultures and flavours.


What sets The Dome by STC apart from other Ramadan dining venues?

For the first time, we’re bringing our Ramadan experience outdoors. The Dome’s breathtaking setting, inspired by mashrabiya patterns and glowing lights, creates an unforgettable atmosphere. Guests can enjoy live entertainment, cosy indoor seating, and two outdoor wings perfect for shisha and live cooking stations. The Dome by STC represents a bold vision brought to life, reflecting our ongoing commitment to providing meaningful Ramadan experiences.


Can you tell us about the Green Ramadan initiative?

Green Ramadan is Hilton’s commitment to reducing food waste. We use the Winnow system to track consumption and design efficient menus. We also partner with Bahrain Food Bank and Peninsula Farms to donate food and convert waste into compost, ensuring that nothing goes to waste.


In one word, how would you describe a Ramadan evening at The Dome by STC?

Magical! It’s an experience you shouldn’t miss.
