I Stay In The World's Only 7 Star Hotel - OMG

Join me as I spend the night in one of the world's most iconic hotels in Dubai -Inside The Burj Al Arab which is laced with 24-carat gold standing tall at 321 metres as the world’s tallest all-suite hotel, the iconic Burj Al Arab redefines and hosts a modern take on Arabian luxury. Located on a private island, let's find out if it's worth the hype!

The Burj Al Arab is a five-star hotel, with the highest official ranking. While the hotel is sometimes erroneously described as "the world's only 'seven-star' hotel"

The hotel owns a fleet of Rolls-Royce Phantoms and you can arrive by helicopter landing on the helipad located on the 28th storey. (This video is NOT Sponsored by The Burj Al Arab

Not gonna lie, driving up to the world's only 7 star hotel in a Fiat Punto is the greatest power move i have ever seen.

I feel like I don’t need to stay here in real life because I vicariously stayed in the hotel with you during this video. Thanks! You’ve just saved me £1500!

[erepsekahs]

It was taking a long time for the check-in because they saw the car you pulled up in and were verifying your credit card was good.

The little box in the dressing room is for your jewlery...watches, rings etc

I was actually expecting this to be closer to £5, 000+. So seeing it was 'only' £1, 500 I actually think that is pretty reasonable. For a once in a lifetime trip or a honeymoon, staying for one or two nights seems at least within reach.

I love the fact that we have 'ordinary' blokes like Tim giving us the real tour without the unnecessary bs that we're otherwise spoon-fed with when it comes to places like this.
I know this world has all kinds and that some are so occupied with the luxurious lifestyle that they can't see beyond it.
For me personally I can definitely appreciate beauty.
But when it comes to luxury it only gets to a certain point until I just don't care anymore.
At the end of the day even the most expensive high-end exclusive meal you could ever eat has turned into literal shit.
And that's sort of the point, no matter how hard you try luxury isn't sustainable.
It can perhaps be enjoyed for a few hours but then what?
Do I actually get happier knowing that the handle I used to open the door costs 400 pounds rather than 40, or when adding things up it really doesn't matter?!

All this being said, I've seen the Burj Al Arab from the beaches outside and now Tim has showed us what the inside looks like.
I'm good.
And thank you!

Dubai to me can be compared to a plastic flower.
Also, if a hotel has the gall to call itself anything higher than 5* (which, in global rating systems means nothing) I wouldn’t expect the following:
- A charge for snacks and soft drinks from the mini bar.
- No comp airport transfer
- being told ‘no’ when asking to look at the facilities.
- Seeing poolside loungers crammed together.
- Decor that hasn’t been updated much in 20 years

Tim, the square flat box you found is for placing your watch and jewelry. The right side is for your rings.

[TaliaIGhul]

I've seen documentaries and quick presidential suite (or whatever they call their best suite) tours. But I never seen a tour of the Burj al Arab this in-depth. In lesser hotels, your suite could be considered a master suite. That pool area's heavenly. It's also sweet how you have a butler service for your room. Thanks for taking the time and everything to give us a first hand look into this exclusive experience.

Thank-you for saving me time and money. I was unable to feel like I would get 1, 500 worth of luxury from a stay here. I feel like I've stayed in other properties for 1/10 the amount and enjoyed similar features, amenities, etc. without all of the gold of course. Keep up the great work

That would freak me out sleeping with a mirror on top of me. I agree about the dated phones, that was a pretty big oversight on their part. It's a hotel for people who love this style of luxury interior design as it's definitely not everyone's cup of tea. It's giving me Hugh Hefner's Playboy Mansion vibes lol. That was a jewelry box next to the hairdryer, not a cigar box lol. Thanks for the review, was really well done !

[gammyjoy]

I love seeing all the places you stay.

[Kimmiehaswaffles]

This is an absolutely mental hotel, hugely overwhelming with everything going on. I think I'd struggle to stay, constantly worrying about what was complimentary and what wasn't.
Thanks for spending the money so us mere mortals can see what it must be like to be rich enough to stay in places like this! Watching you go from reviewing travelodge to this is surreal. My favourite part of the video - the Primark swim shorts comment, I chuckled!

[HannahUK]

Who would have thought it Tim? One minute you're in a grimy room at Pontins, the next you're living the absolute high life in Dubai. I'm honestly so thrilled your channel has taken off and you, and us with you, of course, get to see and experience all these amazing places. Love your vids Tim ❤

[GrandmaMarlayne]

I loved seeing the inside of that hotel. I couldn't afford the airfare to Dubai let alone the hotel prices. Your adventure at the hotel was so appreciated! I feel like I was on vacation through your experience! Thank you so much!

[KF-cxbm]

I woke up this morning feeling down, I found your channel, watched 3 vlogs so far and am now as happy as can be. Ive "stayed" at 3 world class hotels with more to come, thank you

[WatashiWannabe]

"Would I stay here again? I can't afford to!" 🤣 I laugh not because I can't relate, but because I can relate all too well. Excellent work here.

[Nurofaen]

Another great video Tim but am I the only one that finds such unnecessarily lavish upholstery just garish and tacky?

[LifeofMorag]

There is something so pure and wonderful about seeing the guy who spends a lot of time checking out the worst that Britain has to offer holiday wise suddenly shooting up in the world. A very well deserved stay. Also loved the way the tour was exactly the same style as you would do in the Holiday Inn, Travel Lodge or Pontins.

[lissaxoxo]

Amazing video again Tim as always! Your Sun Holiday stay for £9.50 came up on my youtube feed at 2pm today whilst recovering from a sickness bug and since then i’ve watched about 8 of your videos one after the other! You and Gabby make an amazing travel review pair ❤
