Visited Gilt bar for drinks and canapés had to pre book but well worth a visit and treated like royalty. Expect to pay the 7* prices but definitely worth the visit and impressive building and staff also views great as on the 27th floor

Surreal experience, by far the most amazing hotel experience i’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing. The staff and the room were both a 10/10. The room was always kept in perfect condition and the view was gorgeous.
A special thanks to the porter named Willys. His kind service was a true cherry on top of this hotel! Kind regards

I'm a Marriott Lifetime Titanium member and have stayed at many hotels worldwide, but the Burj Al Arab is my new favorite. Upon arriving, we had the best warm welcoming. They upgrading our room to this great two story view of Jumeirah Palm. While waiting for our room, they offered us drink. We randomly decided on a chocolate shake, and OMG, it was the best ever. Coming from Los Angeles, this says a lot. We had room service for the evening and my Wagyu burger was the best. We also indulged in room service for the complimentary breakfast. That meal was beyond our expectations. This hotel is iconic not only in Dubai but worldwide. A must stay!

as they say "there are no words, only emotions" Here is what can be said about this fabulous place. My kids didn’t want to splash this place, even though we moved to Atlantis. You feel at home here. Swimming pool, breakfasts, morning harp ... .. all this is unforgettable

The views from where we were was quite beautiful. Of course this is the first 7 star hotel so not just anyone can go there. You also just can't walk in. I just wanted to see it and I did.

We’re a lot of people wearing masks at the hotel and airport? We need to know what to pack. Thanks!

Dubai is a hive for infection, I would suggest a mask.

Do all bathrooms have a walk-in shower? I struggled to find photos of bathrooms among all the selfies and food photos!

I'm planning to dine at Al Marhara. However, after the meal, can I have a cup of coffee in other restaurants, say, SkyBar at 27/F?. Thanks.

If you reserve and dine in one of their restaurants, that will be your ticket to go in. So I do not think it will be a problem if you would decide to continue in another venue within Burj.
However, if it will give you a peace of mind, do ask or clarify with them when you make the booking for Al Mahara.

Is it worth it to pay 660 AED for Hi Tea finger sandwiches and dessert ? This is excluding any drinks? What is the expected tipping?
Is there any cheaper options to go inside?

Ciao! Ma più o meno quali sono i costi di un aperitivo? Dal sito mi sembra di capire intorno ai 50€ a persona!

Hi I have been trying to make an online reservation for evening drinks in the sky view bar, but it is not letting me submit my details but also not telling me why? Has anyone else had this problem? I thought maybe it’s because I’m trying to pay with debit card as opposed to credit card but this usually isn’t an issue elsewhere? Any help would be appreciated.

Yeah I had the same issue and it is really difficult to get in as you can imagine - I insisted on entry after dining at the restaurant and very reluctantly. Not worth the effort to be honest and very expensive!
