I was at the Burj for a 7 night stay, the room and decor are as I say ' versace on acid' - extremally in your face but somewhole it pulls it off because it is so extravagent. I arrived at DXB in the morning and had the staff waiting for me - to escort me to the helicopter, i... more

Stayed at the Burj many times with my 3 small children and each time it has been a wonderful experience. I find that it is relatively child friendly - OK, the restaurants dont take kids in the evening but to be honest who wants to waste that sort of money and foods on kids??!!! The staff always seem to make... more

Everyone should stay here at least once, it was unbelieavable. The rooms will delight and surprise even seasoned travellers. We found the service fine, did not use the pool or restaurants as not really family orientated but it is easy to get a buggy wherever you want to go on the Jumereih strip. Loved the whole OTT vibe, yes people... more

I booked a one night stay here as part of my husband's surprise birthday trip and truly believe this hotel was the icing on the cake of a fantastic holiday! From the moment we were escorted from leaving the plane through to the moment we checked out we received outstanding service throughout our stay. Our flight arrived at 7.00am and... more

we spent easter in dubai; our first visit there. Having booked into a premium leisure room at the Jumeirah Beach, we were literally faced with "the Burj". There is a huge amount of hype about this 7 star hotel so I suppose we got sucked in. I decided that, as we were "in the area" we would stay a couple... more

£1000 a night..............worth it as a once off or maybe more if you got the dosh! Lets start with arrival at The Burj AL Arab... The entrance is grand in every sense and you have to pass a security entrance before you drive onto a man made island which is the foundation for this enormous modern icon of one of... more

i thought that one's stay at the burj al arab would be rather splendid and i was extremely foolish to think so. as i arrived at the airport on first class from emirates we were taken by helicopter to the hotel. My gucci gown was ruined on the arrival and the sun was to bright so i had to close... more

I stayed at the Burj in 2006 for 3 nights. It was a unique experience and definitely one that I will remember for the rest of my life. If you can afford it, and you go to Dubai, do not miss the opportunity of your life. I simply don't understand how you can be critic about anything in this hotel.... more

I'll start by saying the room and building itself are just an awesome site - don't get me wrong. And just to say that I've stayed at the Burj Al Arab will be something that I really don't ever anticipate knowing anyone else will be able to match in my group of friends. However, I was disappointed by some of... more
