The accommodations are expansive and impossibly well-appointed, decked out in Armani’s signature palette of dark greys and neutrals.
“Giorgio Armani chose the Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building, as the site of his first namesake hotel, which is swathed in the Milanese designer’s sober minimalism.”
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
A private indoor pathway connects directly to Dubai Mall, with Dubai Opera and the choreographed fountain shows just steps away outside.
The rooms
Curving glass walls frame the desert skyline, with sliding panels concealing entertainment units amid a tailored palette of bronze and taupe.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated outdoor pool wraps around the base of the tower on a timber sun deck.
The spa
Treatment suites use custom essential oils, and the thermal circuit includes a laconium and cool-mist walkway.
The gym
Floor-to-ceiling windows and mirrored walls line the fitness centre, where personal trainers run one-on-one sessions.
Restaurant
Armani/Ristorante
Michelin-starred Italian tasting menus are served beside a glass show kitchen, with terrace views of the fountain shows.
Inside the world's tallest tower, Giorgio Armani’s first hotel property is as glam as you'd expect from the Italian designer.
At the table
Dining ranges from regional Indian dishes at Armani/Amal to late-night DJ sets inside the Armani/Privé nightclub.
How it began
The property marks the fashion house's debut hotel, translating runway tailoring and Milanese minimalism into the heart of Downtown Dubai.
“Understated elegance is the highlight of the Armani Hotel experience in Dubai, as explicitly conveyed by each of the 160 guestrooms and suites.”
