Illuminated at night by choreographed lighting representing water and fire – Burj Al Arab is simply individual, inspired, impressive. This all-suite hotel reflects the very finest that the world has to offer. With your chauffeur-driven Rolls Royce, discreet in-suite check-in, private reception desk on every floor and a brigade of highly trained butlers, you can be assured of the ultimate in personal service throughout your stay.

The name of the restaurant means “The Ultimate” in Arabic, and it couldn’t be more fitting: from the unmatched views over Dubai’s ever-evolving coastline, to the extensive menu of the finest European delicacies, as well as the Burj Al Arab’s unforgettable seven-star hospitality. Put all thoughts of vertigo to one side and sample the sumptuous eight-course degustation menu, which features delicacies including foie gras terrine with almonds and Chanterais melon, and cheese with fragrant honey.
