We have never stayed at the Burj Al Arab, but we know a few that have and have visited the rooms. It is not an understatement to stay that they are royal.. The actual entry to the hotel makes you feel like royalty - and while some say that it is gaudy - it certainly is a wonder. Spending a night or two is probably something that one should do at least once in a lifetime. The Burj al Arab is not for everyone, but everyone knows about it.
