Luxury feels at home in Dubai, where all expenses are specifically drawn in this direction. The Raffles 5 star hotel is just one of the many jaw-dropping hotels in this city of opulence.
The shape of the Raffles 5 Star Hotel in Dubai is said to be inspired by the the great pyramids of Egypt (hard to imagine a luxury hotel having a connection with these cultural landmarks, but whatever gets the advertising going) and it is an eye-catching entity in Dubai’s skyline. The 19-storeys pyramidal structure targets “the affluent business and leisure traveler”, as the prices here are also sky-high.
With a total of 246 rooms, each of them displaying a highly contemporary design, a sky garden and very spacious guest rooms, the hotel is renowned for its high degree of comfort and luxury. The arrangements are based on a dynamic use of color, texture and form, inspired by the four life elements of earth, wind, fire and air.
The hotel has no less than ten restaurants, a pool bar, indoor jacuzzi, sauna, various leisure rooms, beauty saloon, conference facilities and many more. And in case life gets tough here, Raffles is just a limousine service away (that will imply an additional cost) from Dubai’s most captivating entertainment centers.
