Dubai opens the world’s tallest hotel.

in #vincentb7 years ago

The world's tallest hotel has officially opened its doors in Dubai -- scaling the clouds and towering above the city below.
The Gevora Hotel is a new offering in the UAE hotspot's financial district -- topping out at an incredible 356 meters high (1,168 feet).
Travelers with a head for heights will know already that Gevora's tower just barely trounces another Dubai sleeping spot -- the JW Marriott Marquis, which is just a meter shorter and was formerly the world's tallest hotel.
The luxurious Gevora is decked out in gold and includes a health club, sauna, pool and five glitzy restaurants.

The Art Deco-style design accommodates 528 rooms -- with accommodation falling into three categories: Deluxe Room (46 square meters), One-Bedroom Deluxe (62 square meters) and Two-Bedroom Suite (85 square meters).
The four-star Gevora is designed to cater to business and leisure needs -- there's a pool with a view and a cafe and bake shop -- but also a business center and boardroom.
There are plenty of culinary delights too -- Gevora Kitchen will offer all-day dining, whilst Highest View Restaurant promises panoramic views from the hotel rooftop.

Interesting that the rooms in the Gevora Hotel are relatively cheap

But it isn’t the most luxurious one.Of course Burj Khalifa is the tallest hotel on the world and of course it is one of the most luxurious one but I think that Dubai wanted to break the record for the tallest building in the world not the most luxurious one.
Thank you for your reply!
