Exceptional Goals

To be the most exceptional, to be regarded as the ultimate and to provide the definitive hotel experience - these goals form the foundation of Burj Al Arab.

A spectacular environment, enhanced by a style of service which is discreet, intelligent and attentive, is what makes Burj Al Arab the world's most luxurious hotel.

Dubai, A Captivating City

Few places in the world compare with Dubai. A vibrant, cosmopolitan city on the shores of the Arabian Gulf, Dubai is a place which retains a warm cultural heart within a strikingly contemporary landscape.

For people who have been here before, Dubai is a treasure trove. For first time visitors, it is an endless surprise. Whilst still retaining its original, evocative Arabian atmosphere, it now offers some of the finest accommodation, recreational facilities, dining and shopping to be found anywhere on earth.

Burj Al Arab - Icon of Dubai

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 kilometers south of Dubai city, dominating Dubai's coastline.

Adjacent to Madinat Jumeirah, Jumeirah Beach Hotel and Wild Wadi, 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.

The Interior

The interior design of Burj Al Arab is evocative of a contemporary Arabian fantasy.

The magnificent lobby is sumptuously carpeted in a rich combination of vibrant colours and lavish materials. Chairs and sofas, upholstered in flame-reds and yellows, continue the theme.

The mezzanine fountain, a kaleidoscope of colour and patterns, is programmed to shoot a water column up to 32 metres in the air, drawing the eye up the gold columns to the triangular blue ceiling 180 metres away.

Slowly it becomes apparent just how spacious the interior is. This feeling is heightened by the impressive view of the Arabian Gulf afforded by the hotels huge panoramic windows.
