The Arabian Court features dramatic architecture, reflecting symmetrical, oriental influences through its mosaics and carved arches. The property is set amidst a landscape of fountains, walkways and lush gardens. Rooms are located in two wings linked to the impressive grand gallery entrance hall.

Inspired by the sail of an Arabian dhow and dominating the Jumeira coastline, Burj Al-Arab is without doubt on of the world's most spectacular hotels and a masterpiece of architectural design. It stands on a man-made island located 300 metres from the mainland to which it is linked by a causeway. At 320 metres high it is the world's tallest hotel building. The interior features a dynamic atrium dominated by a sail-like façade, white by day and a canvas of spectacular light displays at night. Interior décor features marble, hardwoods and gold in profusion.
