Situated on the shores of the Arabian Gulf, and overlooking its own private natural bay, the Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental is one of the most iconic landmarks in the whole of the UAE. Claimed as the world's most expensive hotel, it could easily have come straight from an Arabian fairy-tale, and is a blend of Arabian splendour and indulgence with the ultimate in state-of-the-art technology. In a country of ultra-opulent hotels, this one stands out as an authentic royal guest-house - the expressed aim of management is to give guests the sense of living in a palace, making it a far from run-of-the-mill hotel experience.
The Palace, a kilometre long, has two wings, East and West, joined by the huge Grand Atrium Dome, with a surface finish of silver and gold mosaic tiles, and a gold finial at its apex. There are 114 domes in total, in colours reflecting the different shades of sand found in the Arabian Desert. At night, the hotel changes from a golden-sandy colour, contrasting with the gardens and fountains, to a majestic rainbow-changing light effect over the central dome.
