You can't really say in hotels what is the cheapest rate one can get... There are shitloads of rates for every segment and such it's unbelievable... jabbajabba I must say out of all the developments and type of architecture in Dubai - the burj is habibi, really stunning. English Girlie There is a TV programme in the UK called 'MegaStructures'. A couple of weeks ago they showed 'the building a the Burj Al Arab', from the sheikhs vision, to the drawing board, the build and completion. AND WOW!! I have always had immense respect for the vision and design of the hotel, but after viewing this programme ..... double WOW..... a totally new found respect.... it made my heart skip a beat! I stayed there a few years back, really quite ignorant to what an achievment to structure really is. Didn't appreciate it enough at the time, I feel. Have some wonderful memories though. :lol: And for anyone fortunate to stay. Appreciate it, as a remarkable experience! :D

I didn't pay this much! There are ALWAYS deals to be had!
The underwater restaurant had a four year waiting list, maybe 5 years ago.... but I got a reservation.... and I am no one special!
Do the deal and stay, worth every penny, for the experience!!

I have just learned that they are opening the worlds second '7 star' hotel in RAK on the developement where we have our weekend home - God I hope it's better than the Burj.............. The Major

Anna Ferrari burj al arab is overrated DubaiInformationSite so here is an interesting fact some of you might be interested in. contrary to popular public belief the most expensive hotel room in the world is not the burj al arab. it is not the historic waldorf astoria either......any guesses yet? ....yet? --------- final call? it is....... the four seasons master suite at the top most floor in new york city, new york, USA marmarismarine.com great looking man RedKite Seen ? I think some of the info might be out of date, but that domain and web-site could be developed into something really useful to make money in Dubai. A good domain like that has to be brilliant for the British market. You won't see ".ae" domains in the Google UK listings will you? "." and ".com" endings get priority. So what do you do if you want to market to the 60 million living in the UK? If anyone sells that web-site to a Dubai business or individual , I see they get 20 per cent of the sales price!! Not bad, considering that with the price of Burj Al Arab accommodation that domain and web-site are bound to pay for themselves within days. RedKite It says on that the hotel can be toured for 50 Euros. That is surely no longer true , is it ? Otherwise there would be tourists all over it , disturbing "7 star guests". What is the score these days? Are the public even allowed in? dodot Wow, it looks so great. The Burj-al-Arab is like drawing me to get there. It's one of the tallest building in the world right? Wow, i've never been there. I think next year i'll visit Dubai and spent few days there. :D
