Why Visit The Burj Khalifa
WhyThere are three different observations levels to choose from when you venture up the Burj. Their names are a little misleading though as the first two are called ‘At The Top’ despite only being halfway up the building.
Above this, there is a luxury lounge called SKY which sits at 555 metres in the air. This is a pricey experience however at 500 AED (100 GBP) for just half an hour. Slots for sunset get booked up very quickly, so plan ahead if this is something that interests you.
Our Pick
Stay In The Armani Hotel At The Burj Khalifa

Then take things one step higher with the world's tallest lounge on floors 152-154! There is of course a selection of world class cuisines from Japanese to Indian and European classics.
