Not a Dubai-ous thread this time...

Air Dubai has (in the UK at least) been using a picture of this hotel in their ads.

1260.87 USD Panoramic One Bedroom

2231.88 USD Deluxe Twin Two Bedroom

These are subject to 20% total in taxes and are for one night only.

In our dreams is right, SusanUKF! Yikes at the prices!

But what gorgeous rooms! I have added another thing to my list of things to do if I ever win the lottery!

It's in Dubai, so presumably it's the world most expensive temperance hotel.

It's beautiful, it would be a crime to sleep there, that is, I would have to stay awake all night looking around. I suppose when I consider the hourly value (staying awake) it brings the price down to a comparable ..... $743.96 for the cheapest room. Maybe if it keeps me from spending $243.96 out on the town I could consider it a $500 room. This isn't working... I can't justify that price.

That looks like a great place to stay. Very nice. The location of the hotel from the arial view is also great. Would be a wonderful place to go for vacationing.
