Overall, I am very satisfied with the accommodation. The check-in service is good. There is not much waiting time. There are also coffee and snacks to try.

The breakfast is rich and selective. Yes, the caramel French toast is delicious. The staff are friendly and helpful. It’s worth visiting again. Read less

Went for a birthday treat which was very relaxing and much needed. The spa is very clean and equipped with everything you need. Highly recommend to go enjoy the facilities and the sunset view from the pool and massage room. Ladies only section is available and private.

Arriving from the airport you are travel west on the E11 you see the top of what looks like a sail? The closer your get the larger the sail becomes. As you travel the bridge from mainland to island you realize you arrived at someplace special. Dubai’s iconic Jumeriah Burj Al Arab. Pure Luxury awaits. You know this visit is going to be incredible. Greeted at the entrance by the valet staff you are whisked away into the beautiful lobby. The sounds of water greet your senses. The playful arc of the stair fountains grasps your eyes and beckon you to the shear beauty of the lobby. The colors, oh the colors. The lobby is a visual kaleidoscope of every color imaginable. Look up and gaze in awe of the open atrium of this grand hotel. Venture up the escalator and take in the vast interior of the hotel. The hotel is visually stunning. Escorted to our Panoramic One-Bedroom Suite. Two floors of solid glass await your gaze to the breathtaking landscape of Dubai. As your eyes shift west across the Arabian Sea you see Palm Island and the Skyline of Dubai Media City and Dubai Marina. Every aspect of the room radiates luxury. Spacious does not begin to comprehend the vastness of the suite. The beds were extremely comfy and provided restful night’s sleep. Greeted at the door by Cynthia our Butler. She attended to every detail to enhance our experience. Cynthia’s customer service must be ingrained in her DNA. Cynthia was exceptional. We had the opportunity to meet Varaul Bhatia, Front Desk Manager. Friendly, outgoing, and outstanding customer service. Bab Al Yam is the international breakfast buffet. Sitting outside overlooking the blue waters of the Arabian Sea and the skylines of Dubai, Amazing! Ignacio greeted our table every morning. Asking what can he do to improve our stay? Absolutely exceptional customer service. Thank you. We did not dine at the Burj Al Arab. I’m sorry I cannot comment on the restaurants. We did share a bottle of champagne at the Skyview Lounge. Breathtaking view from the top of the Burj Al Arab. We also visited the cocktail lounge, Gilt. The drinks were phenomenal, the motif was a dazzling, ornate vibe. Our stay at Burj Al Arab is a lifetime worthy, memorable adventure. Truly a unique experience. Make the Burj Al Arab your Dubai destination. You won’t regret it. The hotel, the view and especially the staff created an unforgettable stop on our journey. We all had a fabulous time. Thank you, Judy & Ron, Evie & Frank. Read less
