Jumeirah Beach

Built in the shape of an Arabian dhow sail and dominating the Dubai coastline, this is one of the world ’s most spectacular and luxurious hotels. It offers unparalleled standards of comfort and service in a unique lavish setting.

Burj Al Arab is the world’s tallest hotel building. With its helipad on the 28th floor and a restaurant seemingly suspended in mid air, this hotel has already become a landmark and icon on the Dubai skyline.

Technology within the luxurious fittings of each suite lies a hidden network of technological wizardry.

The multimedia system has up to 57 cable channels -the largest selection available in the Middle East.

Guests can take advantage of the video-on-demand system and can watch any film in the selection available even if other residents are enjoying the same movie.

The television and its remote control manage numerous functions and services. It can record items for viewing later, while one channel is linked to a camera outside the suite allowing room guests to see who is at their door.

Every suite has its own laptop computer, scanner and printer which interface with the television. Guests can phone home from anywhere in their suite. A one-bedroom Deluxe suite has 10 telephones and each Royal Suite boasts no fewer than 17 handsets.
