"By name and by nature the views this hotel affords is its calling card: the Burj Khalifa and the iconic city skyline can be seen from just about every vantage point. Floor-to-ceiling windows ensure that each of the 169 rooms celebrate the sensational views. Linens are crisp and the European design aesthetic sophisticated and ultra-luxe. Rooms are incredibly spacious and boast all the comforts expected of a five-star hotel, including smart televisions with free satellite access. The use of marble in the bathroom which has a tub, shower and dual vanities elevate the appeal, and leather chairs speak to the richness and comfort of the space. Service is five-star with a friendly, welcoming approach and attention to detail." - Melinda Healy, Laura Ratliff
