A "pillow menu" lets you choose from 17 pillows and quilts to make for a decadent night's sleep.
"Low-key it is not, with Rolls-Royce pickups at the airport, a rooftop helipad, and an entrance that denies mere plebeians the right to gawk."
"A stay in this iconic ‘seven-star’ hotel offers the last word in opulence, with every mod-con and indulgence you could imagine... ranging from remote-control curtains to ‘pillow menus'."
"This iconic, sail-shaped hotel—which soars 1,053 feet over the Persian Gulf, on an artificial island off Jumeirah Beach—literally epitomizes Dubai’s over-the-topness." Full review
"The interior is gaudy but the spectacular coastal views, especially from the Skyview Bar, make up for it."
"A stay in this staggering hotel is the ultimate Dubaian luxury."
