Burj Al Arab (Arabic: , "The Arabian Tower") is a luxury hotel in Dubai, the second largest city after the Abu Ahabi capital of the United Arab Emirates (United Arab Emirates) and is called "the world's first 7-star hotel". It was designed by architect Tom Wright, WS Atkins PLC but the interior was conceptualized by Khuan Chew. At a height of 321 meters (1,053 ft), 56 floors, this is the tallest building used as a luxury hotel when completed and opened in 1999. It was built 6 years from 1994 to 1999, lost $ 1.6 billion. It is located on an artificial island 280 meters from Jumeirah beach, and uses a private bridge to connect it to the mainland. The foundation itself took 3 years. There are 230 40m long concrete pillars deep in the seabed as a pedestal for the entire building. This hotel has a symbolic architecture, designed as a symbol of Dubai and shaped like an Arab sail that has no wind to the sea.



The hotel is officially ranked 5 star premium. However, Burj al-Arab is often described as the "only seven-star hotel in the world", although it is the hotel managers who ask for it never to be evaluated. The hotel spokesman, Jumeirah Group, said: "We can't do much to prevent this. We do not encourage using this term. We never use it in their advertising. me." According to an organization, the term "seven stars" appears to be due to a British journalist who visited the hotel on an organized trip for the press delegations to visit the hotel before opening. This journalist "described Burj al Arab in his article as a great hotel and more than anything she had ever seen and called it a seven-star hotel.
