Inside Burj Khalifa, the tallest tower in the world, lives a luxuriously new and often dark world called the Armani Hotel Dubai. Elegant and understated only begin to describe this moody 11 story hotel where the exclusive Club members share access to the Armani restaurants, Spa, lounges and a Nightclub. Luckily, everyone has equal rights to the hotel’s own Georgio Armani retail store – they wouldn’t want to deprive you from that! The residences were designed by Armani himself and the hotel architecture was designed by Wilson Associates. A clever job was done of reflecting the Tower’s spiraling form, which explains the soft cut corners and oddly cool spaces in some parts…

This dark conference room’s ceiling is sky high which makes for better acoustics!

A bit too cold but definitely intriguing Spa…

This ambient modern corridor makes you feel like you’re about to board a UFO- ultra cool!

The bathroom is covered in bamboo marble tiles. Yep- they even had us fooled!

The bar/lounge’s massive windows were dressed in plenty of Armani Home shades for a textured effect.

With a view from this tower, the $2,400 per night for a studio is perfectly reasonable!
