Designed in the style of a Sheikh’s summer residence, Jumeirah Al Qasr (which literally translates to "The Palace") is the jewel in the crown of the Madinat Jumeirah resort. It is a tribute to age-old architectural styles, blended with the staggering luxury that defines modern Dubai.
Your experience begins with a long, tree-lined driveway adorned with golden Arabian horse statues, leading to a grand entrance that feels truly regal.
The hotel is famous for its ornate carvings, traditional wind towers, and sprawling terraces that overlook 2 kilometers of pristine private beach.
It is interconnected by 5 kilometers of river-style waterways to the Souk Madinat or neighboring hotels via traditional wooden boats called Abbras.
It houses some of Dubai's most iconic restaurants, including Pierchic, an over-water seafood destination located at the end of a private pier with unobstructed views of the Burj Al Arab.
