Service is excellent, Went in february 2013 and for a half bottle of South African Wine and pre set meal (you choose from a pre set menu) paid about USS550.00 I chose to dine in the restaurant located on the 27th floor. You can't just walk in, I... More

Had an excellent stay and was very impressed by the property. The New Years Eve celebrations are fantastic and the views from the suites are amazing. Well worth booking although not the cheapest option in Dubai it is by far the best.

There is always that goes a little bit wrong when you stay in most five star hotels...I mean, seldom do you get that seamless experience, from the bellman when you arrive to the bellman when you depart.

We were in awe when we stepped into the hotel, the concierge was fantastic downstairs but when we arrived in the skybar early for our high tea, we sat there for 15 minutes while couple after couple who arrived after us were seated, finally the girl at the desk asked our name again as she had completely forgotten us and...

I get shivers down my spine each time I am made to recall my stay at the Burj al Arab. We stayed (3 of us) in a 2 bedroom suite in 2004. I remembered we landed after 4 am in the morning on a flight from Singapore and had booked the hotel’s BMW transfer service from Dubai airport to the... More

Booked dinner through an agency for a special birthday treat for my wife, it was a religious holiday so no alcohol was being served which did not concern us as we both can take it or leave it, we paid about 120 euro each for a meal that I could only describe as average at best, this however was not...
