The Lounge Burj Khalifa

The Burj Khalifa in Dubai offers a "Tea in the Clouds" experience at The Lounge, located on levels 152, 153, and 154, at a height of 585 meters (1,919 feet) making it the highest lounge in the world. Guests can enjoy a selection of teas and coffees, gourmet canapés, fresh bakes, and delicate desserts while taking in panoramic views of Dubai. The experience also includes a visit to the outdoor terrace. Prices vary depending on the package and time of day, but generally range from 220 AED to 295 AED. The experience typically lasts for 2 hours and 30 minutes. The Burj Khalifa's elevators are among the fastest in the world, traveling at 10 meters per second. This allows them to reach the observation decks on the 124th floor in about one minute. The "At the Top" observation decks are located on levels 124 and 125,

Amazing view and awesome vip experience! Wonderful tea time on the top. It's pricey but worth every penny. The staff are very attentive and friendly. Top notch service! Amazing filipino staff, always smiling and helpful!

Great experience, make sure to do at sunset. I did 5-7 PM which they let me stay until 8 and saw day, sunset, and night. Make sure to get top floor access. 100% worth it. The outside deck is level 152.

Amazing VIP Experience - Worth the Expense We purchased our tickets online through tiqets.com for the Lounge 154 experience with a glass of champagne. Admittedly, it was pricey—744 EUR for a family of four after a small 5% online discount—but it turned out to be absolutely worth it. Initially, we were concerned about the cost, but our fears disappeared once the experience started. The queue for the basic ticket to level 124 was at least 40 minutes, but with our tickets to level 148, we accessed a VIP room where a guide picked us up and took us directly to another lift. Along the way, we bypassed another massive queue of 30–40 minutes. This VIP treatment saved us 60–90 minutes just getting to the top, and our kids would have been restless and bored otherwise. Once at the top, the difference was remarkable. The lounge (spanning levels 152–154) had only a small group of around 30–40 people spread across three floors. There was always a comfortable lounge chair right at the window, offering stunning views. You can explore freely and see the city from every side of the building. The buffet was excellent, offering champagne, wine, coffee, tea, and a selection of tasty food, including nuts and fresh fruit. It was perfect for a small family lunch. But the real game-changer was the open terrace on level 152. Unlike the lower floors, there were no windows—just open air. This made for incredible photos and videos without glass reflections, plus the thrill of feeling the wind and space at such a height. Often, we had the terrace entirely to ourselves, adding to the VIP feel. After spending time in the lounge, we visited level 148, which was still elegant with some food and drinks, but noticeably busier. There were no lounge chairs near the glass, and all views were behind windows. Finally, we descended to levels 124–125, where it was extremely crowded. The terraces there had glass and steel frames, which significantly impacted the view. It confirmed our decision to invest in the VIP experience—paying four times less would have left us feeling frustrated with the crowd, queues, and limited views. Even on our way down, the VIP treatment shone. While others faced a 30–40 minute wait for the lift, we waited no more than five minutes. In summary: Super short queues for both the ride up and down (saving about 2 hours in total). Minimal crowds and plenty of space. Three floors of VIP access with incredible food, drinks, and lounges. A truly unique open terrace on level 152 for stunning, unobstructed photos and videos. No time pressure; the entire experience lasted four amazing hours. If you value your time and want an outstanding experience, this is worth the investment. Highly recommended!

Yes it’s the highest. The view and food are good. But the drinking and food put on the plate is not beautiful, not beautiful as the view and the only one highest lounge. If the glass and plate change more beautiful will be perfect 🙂

Plan to arrive a bit before sunset and stay for the night views, get the best of both worlds! Irene our server was lovely!

Visited in June 2023 and we had a fantastic experience! The Burj Khalifa is just amazing and so are the views you get from the high floors. We bought the ticket with access to the lounge at the floor 154 at 585m. We were given an indefinite time to enjoy the lounge (that means, coffees, soft drinks, pastries, etc. as well as 1 alcoholic drink) and explore the 3 floors 152,153,154 connected altogether. There's also a photographer if you'd like to get some professional photos, either printed or in digital format.
