Burj Al Arab Jumeirah Resort, Dubai
Expert reviews
“Since rising off Jumeirah Beach in 1999, the Burj has been the symbol for Dubai as much as the Eiffel Tower is for Paris. And despite fierce competition, this homegrown star is still regarded with a mixture of affection and awe.”
Featured in CN Traveler’s 2020 Gold List.
“With the iconic white sail of its exterior billowing over Dubai’s coastline, Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is the ultimate hallmark of bespoke decadence, even as the city around it constantly evolves into a dynamic, innovative and awe-inspiring modern marvel.”

Overall, my stay at the Burj Al Arab was an unforgettable experience that exceeded all expectations. I left with memorie
I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Burj Al Arab for 9 nights, and I can confidently say it was one of the most incredible experiences I have ever had. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with unparalleled hospitality that set the tone for the entire stay. The hotel's architecture is breathtaking—its sail-shaped structure is a true masterpiece and immediately gives you a sense of being in a unique place. The staff at the Burj Al Arab deserve special praise especially Manilla and our personal concierge. They were extremely responsive and attentive, always ready to go above and beyond to ensure my comfort. Whether it was arranging special dining experiences, providing personalized service, or catering to my specific needs, they were always "à l’écoute de toutes mes demandes." I was particularly impressed when they managed to locate my lost glasses at Atlantis the Royal and bring them back to me in less than an hour . This level of attention to detail and genuine care for guests made me feel valued throughout my stay. A huge thanks for the Hermès gift as well !

Exceptional Anniversary Stay - A Royal Experience at Burj Al Arab!
Exceptional Anniversary Stay - A Royal Experience at Burj Al Arab! We recently celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary at the Burj Al Arab Hotel, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty. The staff were incredibly attentive and ensured that every detail was perfect. The surprises they had in store for us truly made our stay magical, leaving both us and our kids in awe. The hotel is exceptionally family-friendly, with thoughtful touches and activities tailored for the kids. They were entertained and pampered just as much as we were, making this a perfect getaway for our family. The service was impeccable, and the entire staff team went above and beyond to make our special occasion truly extraordinary. Every interaction was warm, professional, and filled with genuine hospitality. The luxury and attention to detail at Burj Al Arab are unparalleled, and they succeeded in making us feel like we were part of something truly special. We cannot recommend Burj Al Arab highly enough for those looking to celebrate a special occasion in a setting that exudes elegance, comfort, and outstanding service. We are already looking forward to our next stay!
There is no question of what I didn't like it....

Great hotel experience! (avoid skyview bar)
Great room - super quiet, wonderful quality of linen, pillows and duvet, beautiful pool, lovely cold plunge pool!, great amenities, wonderful breakfast, butler service, nice staff
Food and drinks at Skyview bar. Mocktails we had there were very average, you can find better in 90% of places in Dubai. The wagyu beef carpaccio for about $100 plate was definitely not wagyu. This bar is ONLY about the view

Everything was perfect.
Breakfast room is a bit small and sometimes you need to wait to be seated. However, the service during the breakfast was very nice.

Fantastic.
The whole experience is amazing, the suite is out of this world.
There were a couple of small things I didn’t like. 1) the staff at the adults pool constantly asking if my son was 12! In the end I had to show his passport to the manger which looked very embarrassing. The pool bar was closed which is strange as the executive pool bar at the jumeirah beach is always open in the summer.

An amazing, unforgettable experience.
We had a two bedroom suite. It was so spacious and comfortable. The beds, especially the pillows were like heaven to sleep on. The fact that you can contact the butler via WhatsApp was amazing. The toiletries were luxurious and the towels were so fluffy.
The fact that we had to leave:( I’m afraid there is not anything I can say that is a negative.

Recommend for a luxurious and relaxing vacation.
Welcoming service. The butler and reception are more than willing to offer help. Spacious room with snacks included. Infinity pool, water park and indoor swimming pool are super nice facilities to be used. The buggy network is convenient to travel within the resort too.
Some facilities are a bit old. May upgrade the technology in the room. Information is scattered. A pamphlet with all the complementary activities information would be nice.

Overall amazing but pricey.
Breakfast choices were amazing. Overall felt like royalty. But could have done a bit more for my birthday than just a cake !
Checking times . I found 4pm was very late that’s half of the day gone after spending all that money to stay there.
