The Burj Dubai is the only 7 star hotel in the world right now. The shape of the hotel is to resemble a ship's sail. To the right of the tip is a helipad. This is how some of the guests arrive or if they are unable to arrive by helicopter then they arrive in a white Rolls Royce. To the left of the tip is a club, I think. (I assume that because there are lots of lights up there) The hotel itself changing colors during the night. Sometimes the hotel is yellow or purple or ???
Since our hotel is linked by a walkway (similar to the Wailea, Maui area) and our hotel is in the same chain, we can go into the lobby AFTER 11:00pm. Problem is we have been exhausted by 11:00pm. You can also go in if you have a reservation. The hitch is you have to spend at least $100 US dollars per person. I think that would get us an afternoon tea?!??! It sounds crazy but I am debating it, just to see this place. I am falling for the Dubai craziness! What would you do?
Well, Char, I say "Do It"!!! You'll always remember those few minutes of having a drink or something to eat in the Burj Dubai for the rest of your life.
