Burj Al Arab

One of the most recognisable landmarks of the city of Dubai is the Burj Al Arab, which is situated on its own artificial island on the Jumeirah Beach and is one of the most luxurious hotels in the world. This architectural marvel was constructed to look like a billowing sail and it is 321 meters high and it is the highest structure in the skyline of the city. It was opened in 1999 and has grown to be associated with a luxurious lifestyle and glamour and provides its guests with unmatched hospitality and international facilities. Since the service of a private butler or a chauffeur with Rolls royces is a prerogative of the wealthy, Burj Al Arab establishes the world standards of luxuries. Tourists will be able to experience its magnificence by taking exclusive tours, enjoying fine dining at restaurants with Michelin stars, or watching splendid sceneries of the Arabian Gulf. The helipad and the beautiful Al Mahara underwater restaurant are also found in the hotel. Be it as a hotel stay or a mere visit to have a meal or do some sightseeing, Burj Al Arab is not merely a hotel but an experience to be remembered and symbolises the aspirations and sophisticated lifestyle of the city of Dubai.
