The Burj Al Arab - frequently referred to as the world's only "7-star hotel" - is considered to be one of the most luxurious hotels in the UAE and the world. 

It is built on a synthetic island with a unique architectural design to resemble the sail of a boat as a representation of Dubai’s nautical heritage. 

Based on average rates for a standard room, the price range is $1,493 - $3,948 per night. 

From gold-plated iPads to parades of Rolls Royces, let's take a look at the over-the-top luxuries the hotel has to offer.
