The hotel Burj Al Arab, more popularly known as the sail, not the standard rooms. All 202 rooms - suites. All rooms are double-decker, and the smallest area - 170 square meters. m., and the biggest - 780 square meters. m. The hotel is a symbol of Dubai. I have lived in many expensive hotels, but this struck me. It really is different from all the others ... Before the crisis room in Burj Al Arab had to be ordered at least six months.



The idea to build a hotel in the shape of the sail came to the English architect Tom Wright accident. He sat at the bar and drank beer. Floated past the windows with Arab dhows sail. Tom exclaimed, "Eureka! Here is a simple and recognizable form that can draw even a child! »
Burj Al Arab stands on an artificial island and connects it with the land bridge, which at the beginning of the PPC with the guards:



The hotel is constantly walking a group of tourists with cameras and open mouths. Upon entering the hotel, you will be rested in the ladder fountain with two escalators on the sides. Fountain periodically starts to play, spitting short streams of water:



The registration process is very simple at the hotel. You give your passport employee, while they themselves are sitting on the couch, eating dates and drinking coffee:



All restaurants and elevators are located on the floor above, where it is necessary to climb the escalator. In the wall next to them hid 2 large aquarium:



Upstairs is another playing fountain. Games fountain:



Burj Al Arab in the world's tallest hotel lobby - 180 meters. If you raise your head up, you will see here is a kaleidoscope:



Every next floor a little longer last. Corridors are not smooth, but with convex sides. Ceiling color changes from floor to floor. It seems surreal. This corridor of our floor. It is difficult to immediately understand where that is - you should look:



On each floor of your reception and concierge, guests were comfortable. You will always be met at the elevator and spend up to the room. In this case, the butler was always joking, asked how was your day, in short, courtesy itself. Therefore, walk along the corridor is not terrible. Fencing is very convex and wide. Down just to look impossible. To make the next photo I had to hold the camera at arm's length. Top lobby seems tiny:



The hotel has 27 floors. We asked for a room higher up, and we settled on the 14-th floor, but do not forget that each floor has two. Opening the door, we saw the following picture.

Stairs went up to the bedroom and front desk. Each room is equipped with a laptop, fax, copier and color printer. That's kind of in the opposite direction:



The door opened to us the girl who came here with us from the lobby. The room she gave us our personal butler. He gave us orange juice and gave us a tour. Started from the first floor. Virtually all the space is occupied by a large living room:





The room has speakers kreydelom for iPods, and all the equipment is controlled from the panel AMX:



TV covered with golden armor. In general, the construction of the hotel was used by 8,000 square meters of gold leaf:



While we went on the floors, fruit bowl significantly clean up the younger generation. Every time we left the room, even for 5 minutes, she miraculously replenished with fresh fruit:



There is also storage room and guest toilet:

The highlight of all the rooms are huge floor to ceiling windows overlooking the sea:



Use the remote for the TV mini bar leaves:



Remote deserves special attention. Like button "Call butler." Also, using this console, you can open, close the blinds, light bulb "Do not disturb" and even open the door - not to run down ...
During the tour brought our suitcases. I was completely floored by the butler question: "Is it convenient to you that I now make out your suitcases?" I hesitated, and then said: "Convenient!". He could make out all the suitcases, all neatly laid out on the shelves, and dirty laundry took with him to the laundry:



And, of course, at the top there is a huge bathroom with Jacuzzi:



Bathroom "encrusted" full-size cosmetics from Hermes. The men's line with black caps, and the female with white. Butler said that we can take all cosmetics with you, and we did. So he "allowed" steal slippers and a great beach bag:
