...I am going to say HERE
This place is the only 7 star hotel in the world.
*click on the tab on the right side titled "staying with us" & check out what you can get with your room, it's nuts.
*I tried finding a price for this place by checking rates and availibility, but the page took forever to load, maybe you guys can find it better. |

| 60 minutes did a segment on Dubai a few years ago and did a lot of shooting in and around this hotel. I couldn't believe it then, I can't believe it now. Incredible place! |

Perhaps this is one of those places that fit the cliche, "If you have to ask the price, you cannot afford it."

Never got the check rates page to work either, but did a google search and came up with another way to check. A couple nights starting 1 Nov for 2 adults is only $1,189.00 (US) a night! Now, where is that credit card? See Check Prices

I couldn't get the rates page to load either, but the "afternoon tea" was AED 190 or AED 280 for the "indulgent afternoon tea", which equates to about $750 or $1200 US. Oh yeah, it included one (I repeat ONE) glass of champagne. ROFLMAO
I can't imagine what the room rates are... |

I guess I'm a hotel "gyru" well at least what my mom tells me. Over the summer my girlfriend and I took a roadtrip. We drove from St. Louis to New Mexico, then to Texas to visit my family. A couple months prior to the trip I worked extra to save up some money. Everyone thinks I'm crazy but when we went through NM i decided that I'm young, I don't have to pay taxes or any of that fun stuff yet, so why not do something that I might never do again. Spent 2 nights here and it ended up being over $1,000 with food & other stuff, and they nail you with a resort fee.
If anyones interested I made a photobucket thing of the trip, it was fun and all but i prolly won't be doing it again for awhile.Here is the link to it... //photobucket.com/albums/b244/2005roadtrip/

Really interesting segment on the Travel Channel about this place. It's been quite a few months ago that I watched it, but I believe the larger suites go for $10,000 a night. I could be wrong, but that number has stuck with me for some reason.
