Burj Al Arab

Rooms: 202 (Maximum rooms we can get - 100)
Conference space: 1000m2
Location: Jumeriah

Description:

The Burj is probably percieved by many as being one of the finest hotels in the world. It is certainly the property that everyone wants to be able to say they have been to. Regarding the 'Best in the world' we think it depends how you look at it.. it's certainly not for everyone. The decor is in your face in a big way, but surprisingly you do get used to it, and if you can manage to disconnect all of the 13 odd phones before you go to bed you'll get a great nights sleep.

It is, without doubt, an experience to stay in this property, but... Dont be surprised if you are suddenly surrounded by several tour groups with their cameras pointed at you snapping away just in case you might be a celebrity (which kind of shows the level of the tour groups we are talking about). It's a harsh fact, but no matter how much we complain it continues to happen - so now we have warned you!

Their forte is definitely their food.... why? Well that is our secret! The other thing that they are very good at are smaller meetings, the hotel offering a really quiet places to get away from everything . However we should warn you.. again...of the hoards of tourists that traipse through the place on a daily basis.

Ideal Programme Placement:

Ideal Group size 30 to 100 although you can push it a bit further than that.

Delegate Profile upper to top management type guests (as these are the ones with the required budget), any age and they will definitely want to come with with partners (either willingly or unwilling)...and some people say ideal for a group that are collectivly visually challenged.

The Burj is good for any group profile - but what they all need is a serious budget!

Programming

The Burj is a great hotel, the levels of service on the accommodation floors, and in the Conference and Banqueting, are quite exceptional (and so they should be!) And when you are fainting over their rates, consider that even though you are looking at upwards of about Dhs 3,000 per night.. bear in mind that all the rooms are duplex and over 200m2 each. Divide that all out and based on size ironically they are in fact the cheapest rooms in Dubai.
