Dubai - Tallest Structures in the World

The UAE is home to some of the tallest and most spectacular buildings in the world. When visiting Dubai, make sure you look up to see some of these amazing structures.

A relatively modest 63 floors can be found in the Address Downtown, which is 306m in height. Book a Spa Suite alluring outdoor spa baths and private terraces overlooking the Old Town if you're looking for something extra special from your visit to Dubai. The rest of the hotel isn't bad either though!

The spa has 11 treatment rooms, an ice cave and a luxury dining area, as well as a gym where you can work up a sweat before your soothing massage begins. Using traditional techniques and natural products, therapists take a holistic approach to treatments to ease away stresses and strains and leave you rejuvenated and invigorated.

The Grosvenor House Hotel may come in at a mere 44 floors, but it certainly isn't short on luxury. The show-stopping Grosvenor Suites, decorated in muted earthy tones of cream and brown, overlook the uber-glamorous Dubai Marina. They're self-catering, so fussy eaters can avoid the hotel's restaurants altogether and prepare their own meals in their suites.

Dining at the Grosvenor is an incredible experience though that you really don't want to miss. With the Michelin-starred Indego and British celebrity chef Gary Rhodes's Rhodes Mezzanine, the hotel has three restaurants, as well as the world-famous Buddha Bar. It features a Vietnamese lounge, sushi bar, and Japanese private rooms to party the night away.

In a country famous - or notorious - for its excesses, Dubai is a city that pushes the limits. There's no better destination to visit for that decadent special-occasion break, if you like your travel to be lavished with luxurious touches, and you love to sleep close to the stars. A head for heights is a must though!
