We had an exceptional stay at the Burj al Arab. The stay was for my 50th birthday and I had surprises throughout my stay at the hotel. From a birthday cake waiting for me in the room, a surprise birthday treat for breakfast and to top it all, my sons were given roses to give me during lunch and a surprise birthday dessert with a candle and birthday song. Our butler, Mr Jonathan, was very kind and made sure to attend to all our needs promptly. So was Ms Crystal the next morning. The waiter who brought the cake at the restaurant was very helpful and had a pleasant smile throughout. Sadly I don't remember his name. The stay was a dream come true after more than 20 years in the UAE. The facilities in the room and around the hotel are very carefully planned and maintained. The staff at the gift store was also very friendly and helpful.

I am writing to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to the whole team for a simply exceptional stay I had at Burj Al Arab in early July.
I must pay particular tribute to Claudia for her extraordinary hospitality throughout my stay. Claudia showed dedication, commitment and generosity to make my stay as memorable as possible.
The butlers whom I met were helpful, friendly and most importantly available.
A special thanks to the team at Bab Al Yam, and I was delighted to meet Emilio who was most welcoming. The food and service were excellent.
This was only echoed in my lovely experience at Sahn Eddar. I was also delighted with a late night drink at Skyview, and indeed the view is simply stunning.
I also loved my brief but thoroughly enjoyable visit to the indoor pool and spa facilities on the 18th floor. An absolutely wonderful moment to remember.
I had mentioned the importance of special beginnings and endings as of the utmost importance to guests of Jumeirah, and again I must say Claudia excelled in this area. My lovely farewell as I drove away from the hotel yesterday afternoon was a deeply thoughtful and emotional experience for me.
Jumeirah holds a very special place in my heart, for many personal reasons. I have had many quality experiences over the years.
However, my experience on Sunday staying with you again at Burj Al Arab, has been the absolute highlight so far, and I pay sincere gratitude for this to the whole team.
I look forward to returning to see you all again in the near future.

From the first moment, you will feel that you are in a different life or in a different planet. Check in immediately, and we received our suite two minutes later. The duplex suite was huge, super luxurious. Minutes later, our smiling butler Narjis came with the welcome drinks, and later a big bowl of mixed berries. WOW, we dined at Al Iwan restaurant. The food was super delicious, they brought us a plate of mixed grills which was not included in the buffet, big WOW, the breakfast was good with great quality but needed a little improvement, the service was super quick everywhere, forgive me because I have to say Bab Al Yam restaurant needs renovation. I hope I will visit this paradise again. Thank you, Burj Al Arab
