Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, Dubai: Inside The 7 Star Luxury Hotel
Rising from the Arabian Gulf on an island 280 metres from the shores of the renowned Jumeirah beach and the enchanting city of Dubai, stands the iconic Burj Al Arab, a masterpiece of contemporary architecture and the most opulent hotel in the world. Designed to resemble the graceful sails of an Arabian dhow, Burj Al Arab soars to a height of 321 meters and is less than 20 kilometres south of Dubai city, dominating Dubai’s coastline. Illuminated at night by choreographed lighting representing water and fire – Burj Al Arab is simply individual, inspired, impressive.
In its relatively short tenure on the Dubai coastline this legendary and symbolic hotel has attracted international attention and awe, ensuring its place as one of the most photographed structures in the world, and consistently voted the world’s most luxurious hotel.
Adjacent to Madinat Jumeirah, Jumeirah Beach Hotel and Wild Wadi waterpark, and in close proximity to Mall of Emirates, Ski Dubai, The Palm Jumeirah and array of world-class golf courses, Burj Al Arab is perfectly located and acts as a landmark at the very heart of Dubai.
This all-suite luxury hotel in Dubai reflects the very finest that the world has to offer. With a discreet in-suite check-in, private reception desk on every floor and a brigade of highly trained butlers, you can be assured of the ultimate in personal service throughout your stay. And don’t forget to upgrade your experience at Burj Al Arab with a chauffeur driven Rolls Royce.
The hotel is officially rated Five-Star Deluxe. However, it is frequently described as “the world’s only seven-Star hotel”, although the hotel management claims to never have done that themselves. In the words of a Jumeirah Group spokesperson: “There’s not a lot we can do to stop it. We’re not encouraging the use of the term. We’ve never used it in our advertising.” According to the group, the “Seven-Star” notion was brought to being by a British journalist who visited the hotel on a pre-opening press trip. The journalist “described Burj al Arab in her article as above and beyond anything she had ever seen and called it a seven-star hotel.”
