abstract
202 rooms are all two-story suites, and the smallest room is 170 square meters; The largest royal suite is 780 square meters. And they are all French windows, which can face the endless Arabian Sea at any time. When you enter the room, there will be a butler waiting to explain to you how to use all the high-tech facilities in the room, because the luxurious and distinguished service purpose of the hotel is to make guests feel like the king of Arab oil, and stay in the royal suite and enjoy the seven-to-one service of the butler, chef and waiter. In addition to shock, it also makes people lament the power of money. Take the most common luxury suites as an example, including curtains and light switches. There is a Toshiba laptop on the desk, and you can surf the Internet at any time. All the paintings hanging on the wall are original.
luxurious
The AI-Mahara seafood restaurant in the hotel seems to capture the freshest seafood for customers in the deep sea. Eating here is really an unforgettable experience-you have to use the interior of Burj Khalifa Hotel.
Water ship transfer. From the hotel lobby to the Ai-Mahala seafood restaurant, although the voyage is only 3 minutes, it has entered a magical underwater world, with bright tropical fish swimming around on both sides of the submarine, which is beautiful. Ann sat in a comfortable dining room chair and looked around the glass window. The flowing scene of coral and marine fish accompanied the guests to enjoy reorganization and freehand brushwork. There are restaurants on the sea and restaurants in the air. Guests only need to take the express elevator to reach the AI-Mahara restaurant, which stands 200 meters above the Arabian Gulf, in 33 seconds. Entering a restaurant designed in space, with soft blue-green lighting and wave design, is like entering another world. This restaurant can accommodate 140 customers. At dinner time, the night sky is bright, watching Dubai's sky and bay, and enjoying the advanced cooking with Mediterranean flavor must be the highest enjoyment of life. Only delicious Mediterranean food is served, which is a major feature of this restaurant. The interior of BOC International Hotel is extremely luxurious and eye-catching. Even the doorknob, the water pipe in the toilet and even a note paper are covered with gold. Although it is gold-plated, if all the details are elegantly decorated with gold, it is a test of the designer's taste and skill. Because of the appearance of water sails, hotels are full of water-related themes (perhaps in desert countries, water shows more financial resources than gold). For example, once entering the hotel gate, there will be different ways of spraying water from time to time, each of which is carefully designed. It takes about 15 ~ 20 minutes to change the spray method, which is no different from water dance. You can also enjoy the aquarium up to ten meters by elevator. It's hard to believe that it's a hot Arabian desert outside. What impresses you the most is the royal suite on the 25th floor and above, with elegant and brilliant decoration, top-class decoration and furnishings collected from all over the world. It is as magnificent as a palace, with gold-plated furniture, private elevators, private cinemas, revolving beds, Arabic reception rooms and even cloakrooms larger than ordinary hotel rooms. The late top fashion designer Versace once praised this.
mirror
The most special thing is that there is a mirror as big as a bed on the ceiling of the bedroom, so you can sleep face to face with yourself. All bathroom utensils in the bathroom are Hermes brand, including soap and cologne. Of course, the shower equipment is also outstanding. In addition to the shower nozzle above, you can also choose to spray water in three stages, next to a jacuzzi set off by mosaic murals, and a leather lounge chair at the door of the bathroom for passengers to rest. Because Boci is such a super luxury hotel, many foreign tourists just want to visit it (for most people, they can only feast their eyes). However, please note that the hotel is not allowed to visit. If you have close friends, you can visit them after strict communication, or spend 240DHS for a buffet breakfast, or you can visit them (1Dhs is about 65438), but the visit is also limited to the lobby, and the guest room corridor is not allowed to enter. The suites of the seven-star hotel in Dubai feature a round bed with a red ceiling, and the floor under the bed can rotate. There is a circular jacuzzi in the master bathroom. The suite has a separate elevator and movie hall.

Edit this paragraph. Hotels like to recruit employees from China.
Burj Khalifa Hotel now has about 1000 to 2,000 employees, with Filipinos the most, followed by Indians. It is difficult to meet a student of Shandong Tourism Vocational College who works in the Burj Al Arab on the service floor of the hotel.
Worship the locals. "Dubai locals are too rich to work in the service industry." A hotel service staff told reporters. According to him, there are dozens of China people working in hotels. An important reason for recruiting so many China employees is that China is rich in human resources, and more and more China people are spending money in Dubai. Many employees in China are students of Shandong Tourism Vocational College. Since 2005, luxury hotels in Dubai and Abu Dhabi have cooperated with this school to select students with excellent skills, language proficiency and professionalism for internship and employment through strict interview assessment. Many of them work in Burj Khalifa.
Edit this passage about Dubai
History of Dubai
Dubai is the second largest city in the United Arab Emirates. The United Arab Emirates consists of seven "Emirates", of which Dubai is the most important one. It is close to the "golden waterway" of the Strait of Hormuz, and the rolling oil in the hinterland of the desert nourishes this luxurious city. In the middle of last century, this seaside seven-star hotel
This town is simple. About 30 or 40 years later, it was miraculously reborn, and skyscrapers on both sides of the hall rushed to rise. The lights of the limousine flashed smoothly across the wide boulevard. The Crown Prince of Dubai is not satisfied with the prosperity under his rule. He pulled the chaebol into the sea many times. After several twists and turns, the famous entrepreneur Al-Maktoum made a big bet. His paintings are rooted in the clearest sea and the softest beach. After five years' work, I built an island around the sea like the Dutch, and drove 250 thick piles 40 meters below the sea floor. Dubai people are used to the harmony between tides and rammers, and to the reflection of stars and steel flowers. 9000 tons of steel are firmly cast together. The magnificent giant "sail" finally sailed into the Persian Gulf. In the 1950s, it was a simple seaside town in the Arabian Gulf. After the 1990s, Dubai experienced a complete transformation. Rows of skyscrapers miraculously stand on the banks of the Hall River, making people feel like they are in new york. Like other cities in the Middle East, Dubai is rich in oil. But for an ambitious new city, if you want to show your talents in the new century, oil is definitely not all. Dubai opens its doors and vigorously develops tourism. Due to the high-quality environment and colorful culture (because 80% of Palm Island
Population due to foreigners), tourists to Dubai are mostly high-income classes such as models, artists and businessmen. At the suggestion of the Crown Prince of Dubai, the famous entrepreneur Allermark Toum invested in the beautiful Burj Al Arab Hotel. This is an extremely luxurious country, and the cost of planting each tree here is over $3,000. Here are some of the most expensive hotels in the world, the most aristocratic sports in the world, and the water here is more valuable than oil. Mercedes-Benz is used as a police car here, and gold ornaments are part of a woman's weight. At the same time, it is a country in the eyes of the world war, located in the Middle East, but the terms such as Iran-Iraq War, Gulf War and "9. 1 1" are isolated from it. There are veiled women and men in white robes and small hats, luxurious house walls, charming folk crafts and magnificent mosques. In the dancing figure of dates, there is an intoxicating exotic atmosphere everywhere. There is the world's longest cake 1.75 miles, the world's largest shopping bag, the world's eighth wonder-the world's largest artificial island, with a cost of $3 billion. This island, which is designed as a big palm tree, can also be seen from the moon.

Greening in Dubai
Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Although the United Arab Emirates is a tropical desert country, traveling in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, it is easy to mistake you for a tropical island country. Because everywhere is lush green, trees are shaded, flowers are in rows, and the grass is flat. The trees on both sides of the road are lush, covered with palm trees, phoenix trees and colorful flowers. Those green lawns will make you feel that you are in Europe. The per capita greening area in Dubai is 20 square meters, and the greening in Dubai is absolutely extravagant. There is a "water supply pipe" next to every tree and shrub. In the morning and evening, the dense black hoses covering the ground will spray the desalinated seawater as a mist. The planting cost of each tree in Dubai is more than US$ 65,438+0,000, and the raising cost per square meter of lawn is US$ 3,000 per year, which is worthy of the name.
Education in Dubai
Dubai
If Dubai's education system was almost blank in the past, then the whole education system in the United Arab Emirates and Dubai has been gradually improved, comparable to almost all developed countries. Before 1977, Dubai did not have its own university, and young people were encouraged to study in Britain and the United States. The living expenses such as tuition fees were provided by the government. Now, there is a comprehensive university and a polytechnic university in Dubai, and girls are also enrolled. In order to let the students who graduated from high school continue their education, the government provides high bonuses to the students who go to college after graduation-the government is afraid that they will neither go to school nor work after graduation.
