Most luxurious hotel in the world!

The Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai!

Vacation anyone? :hehe:

http://www.usahotelguide.com/hotel/1...93fca6a7916686

This hotel is in Dubai which is in the United Arab Emirates, near Saudi Arabia....
- It's $75 U.S. just to get in the gate to look at this place!!!!
- it took 18 months to build, and had the top 5 architects in Europe to design it.
- the cost of it, is estimated at over 80 million U.S.
- the hotel opened this june 2003 for tourists.

anyone got 2000$? Here are some rates for this place!

i think the bellagio in vegas or the grand wailea in maui have it beat..both those hotels cost close to a billion to build

ive been to the grand wailea a couple of times...its fuckin amazing man, they have like a rainforest/tropical type landscaping all around the eastern wing of the hotel..its like you have to walk through a forest to get to the pool but the crazy thing is theres streams all runing through the forest but the streams are part of one of the pools cuz the pool is like this huge 2000 foot long adventure pool, with three bars in it..like 8 water slides, a water elevator, and like 6 hot tubs and two saunas....its fuckin crazy man..and the lobby is this huge 8 story open air deal with that has tropical birds living in it, coi ponds, two resturants, a bar with live music and tropical plants all growing up the side. theres also a two clubs inside the hotel, one of them is huge, they have an art gallery a bunch of shops like 5 other resturants. the hotel is fuckin amazing. The rooms start at 400 us a night, the penthouses are 10,000 a night, its crazy man...if anyone has seen that sean desmond music video "sread my wings" alot of it was filmed at the grand wailea.
