A closer look of The Best Hotel in the World

There is only one thing that could steal my attention from an interesting book or Maria Sharapova without fail, beautiful architecture.

I LOVE beautiful buildings, be it a house, a hotel, or a museum. I can enjoy a beautiful house for a really long time, from corner to corner. I feel sense of peace and amazement whenever I admire a wonderfully-made building.

It's difficult to talk about beautiful buildings without mentioning Burj Al Arab Hotel (Dubai), which was chosen as The Best Hotel in the world in World Travel Awards 2007. Before you show skepticism "How good can it be???", why not you just enjoy some pictures below.










If you are like me, the ultimate question you will ask is "How Much?"
Well, Spending one night in this 7-star hotel will make you poorer by AED 9250 (equals SGD 3400). As comparison, the best hotel in Singapore, The Ritz-Carlton will "only" charge you SGD 1050 for the same kind of room.

Nothing luxurious comes cheap, indeed.

Imagine a conversation like this in the future.

Guy : "Hey, money can't buy everything. It can buy a house, but not a home"
Girl : "Well, if we have money, at least we can stay at Burj Al Arab Hotel!"
Guy : "....."
