Free stay for life for baby born in Dubai hotel
Child gets lifetime free stay as goodwill gesture
A Kazakh woman gave birth in the lobby of Grand Midwest Hotel in the Dubai Media City hotel yesterday.
The hotel owner, Mohammad Arshad Shah said he will offer a lifetime free stay to the baby boy, according to Gulf News.
The hotel will also name a room after the baby.
The Kazakh woman had got down to the lobby from her 17th floor room to go to a hospital when the contractions started.
"I saw her leaning on the sofa and when I rushed to her and asked her if she needed a wheelchair, she told me to get two towels," said Ram Chandra Sharma, the bellboy, who helped with the birth.
"I ran up to the sixth floor health club and got the towels," said Ram, who had never faced such an emergency before.
Ram then got a sheet and a pillow and soon the baby boy was born.
The couple could not be contacted at Al Wasl Hospital where she was taken by paramedics. |
