I checked the rates and to stay there the night of my birthday would cost me $1,430. That doesn't even take into consideration the cost of getting there. Maybe when I'm rich. :)

What strikes me as unusual about this is the fact that they build so many things on "reclaimed" land in Dubai. It must be extraordinarily stable there - as in no earthquakes, tidal waves, etc. Or else they are planning to make history with one of the biggest hotel disasters of all time when the big ones hits 'em. Hehe.

I've written about them before too. They're amazing!
