Shaped to resemble the sail of a ship, the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is an iconic luxury hotel, instantly recognizable as the most luxurious hotel in the world. In fact, it’s one of the world’s very few 7 star hotels.
Located on a manmade island, linked to the mainland by a private bridge, the distinctive sail-shaped silhouette is more than just a stunning hotel, it is a symbol of modern Dubai.
With the world’s largest fleet of Rolls Royces, 24 karat gold ipods, butler service, exquisite dining, and a rooftop helipad, spending an evening here is no doubt a pricey affair, but worth every penny if you’re looking for the ultimate luxurious splurge.
So what would it cost to stay in the most luxurious hotel in the world? The most expensive suite goes for $19,000 a night. But for those wanting to experience gold-plated opulence at its finest, keep an eye out the Luxury Escapes website, as they often run deals for $3,499 for two nights. It’s your chance to stay in the world’s most luxurious hotel!!
Burj Al Arab Jumeirah Dubai Review
Your Arrival
Your arrival at Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is the start to an unforgettable experience. Your choice of transport is between the world’s largest chauffeur-driven fleets of Rolls Royce’s or by a dedicated helicopter transfer service (if you catch a package with Luxury Escapes they include private return airport transfers through Arabian Adventures).
Visitors who arrive by helicopter will experience a 7 to 10 minute birds-eye-view of the city, culminating in a dramatic landing on the hotel’s helipad on the 28th level.
It’s an unforgettable welcome, and from the moment you enter your room, and your butler asks whether you would like assistance unpacking your luggage, you realize that you’ve arrived in a place where your every request is granted, and every need anticipated.
Just imagine …

The Rooms
Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is suite-only accommodation, and with 202 luxurious suites, this is a haven which offers travelers the total privacy and luxury that every vacation deserves.
The two-storey Deluxe One-Bedroom Suites feature 170sqm of truly opulent space with remote-controlled curtains opening up to spectacular views over the azure waters of the Arabian Gulf. Suites feature an iMac computer, media hub, free WiFi, widescreen TV and a master bathroom complete with a full-size Jacuzzi, rain shower and full-sized Hermès amenities.
And don’t be surprised if you’re handed a gold ipod! For the ultimate sleep experience, choose from a selection of 14 different pillows, Eiderdown duvets, exquisite Egyptian cotton linen, and an ultra-deluxe super king bed personalised to suit your specific posture preferences. The hospitality is unparalleled!
The hotel is home to the world’s largest brigade of butlers, available 24 hours, which means exceptional personal service. There is a private reception on every floor, personalized private bars, and the option for in-room dining. Some of the higher end rooms are fitted out with libraries, snooker tables and private elevators too.

The Restaurants
Burj Al Arab Jumeirah has nine signature restaurants and bars on site, each featuring as one of the best dining experiences in the world in their own right. The spaces are all elegant, whether you’re dining in the atrium, or overlooking the skyline.
Each restaurant is unique, and you have the choice of everything from authentic Arabic cuisine, to far East Asian and Modern European dishes. As you would expect, they’ve sourced ingredients from around the globe, and have authentic fresh produce flown in.
Nightly dinners at a selection of the hotel’s restaurants are included in the packages from Luxury Escapes. Our favorite is Al Mahara by Nathan Outlaw, who serves the best seafood in Dubai. It’s a relaxed atmosphere, with a focus on artful simplicity, and a huge aquarium filled with 50 species of fish.

The Facilities
On top of 9 restaurants, the hotel also features private beach access, two swimming pools (with private cabanas), a water park that is free for guests, and luxury car hire for those wanting to take a Ferrari or Lamborghini for a spin (what better way to fit in as a local in Dubai!).
There is a fitness club with premium mixed fitness and spa facilities, and dedicated female only options, and opportunities to explore the Arabian Gulf with a private yacht charter service available exclusively to hotel guests (a spa therapist can join you onboard too!)
If you’re traveling with kids, the Sinbad’s Kids Club is located on the 18th floor of Burj Al Arab, adjacent to the Diwania Library, and is staffed at all times by professional carers. And then there’s Wild Wadi Waterpark, one of the world’s most impressive waterparks, with slides and rides guaranteed to delight both the young and the young at heart.

Ohhhhhhhh i soooooo want to stay here when we go to Dubai! I need a little luxury in my life!
I have always wanted to go to Dubai, I would love to see the amazing way they have made their own islands, see how they have built these amazing hotels.
Absolutely brilliant Meg. 7 star hotel. Inspired. I recall seeing some similar wealth in neighboring Qatar earlier this year. The folks over there take things to the next level when it comes to wealth, opulence and showy-ness, as the culture demands it in many ways. Love it. Almost like if Scrooge McDuck decided to design the place. The only thing missing is the pool of dubloons. Not a bad deal for a 2 night stay either.

I admit it sounds quite the bargain. And, while I could be tempted to splurge, I doubt my right brain would not vehemently object.
Sigh, if only I had some spare cash to do this :D I so want to stay here and live like a king :D
Haha, I didn’t even know there was such a thing as a 7-star hotel! I find it remarkable that anything this fancy exists, but I love the fact that it does. Perhaps one day I’ll win the lottery and be able to take a yacht out from here with my very own spa therapist on board. One day…!
I had no idea 7-star hotels existed! God I don’t think I’ll ever sleep in this kind of hotel haha. That’s funny that they just built the hotel like the Burj Tower… Wonder if somewhere there is an Eiffel Tower hotel? Hope that one day I get a business trip there with free accommodation in this hotel haha. It does look like heaven for a couple of days!
I had never imagined it was this exotic! Gold ipod? Like seriously? Wow!
Amazing heights of luxury in the world’s highest hotel. I’m still reeling from the opulence and grandeur. Dubai has taken reinvention to a whole new level, and this hotel is a living example of that.
Wow a 7 star hotel! I didn’t know that was a thing, however I am not surprised that since it is, it is located in Dubai. It looks like any stay here would be unforgettable. That is a fantastic deal they are offering too and I love that children stay, play and eat free. thanks for sharing I’ll head to the link to check it out.
Oh, how lovely would it be to stay here just one night and experience this type of luxury! I heard they also sell the most expensive cocktails at the bar there too. That’s a fantastic deal too. I don’t think I could ever pay full price for a room here without crying for years!
While reading the post, I imagined doing all these things, arriving by helicopter, chilling in the jacuzzi, going to the aquarium and it sounds like a dream! It is definitely worth a visit if you think about all the people that you would meet during a night at one of its restaurants. The most powerful people in the world! Dying to visit Dubai!
I don’t have the cash for burj-al-arab :-( But how nice would be to spend a weekend there and make the most out of this hotel and all its amazing facilities . . . Book me the helicopter transfer, please! :-)
I love this hotel so much that whenever there is a telecast of the documentary movie about ‘Making of Burj-al-arab’ on Nat Geo or Discovery channel, i donot miss it. It really is a fascinating hotel that everyone wants to get in. Love the blue and white colour on the outside, makes it look so elegant. WOuld love to visit this marvel someday when i have ample of money.
This is an absolute dream of mine!! Just not sure I enjoy Dubai as much as I used to as a country..
