What makes Burj Al Arab a seven star hotel?

Answer 1

There is NO such thing as a 7 star hotel it is just A self proclaimed ranking without merit. like hotels saying they are 6 star which is false as well. it just like any hotel around the world, it is very nice! but is just a 5 star hotel.

as the hotel management claims to never have said that it was a 7 star but infact a 5 star hotel. In the words of a Jumeirah Group spokesperson: "There's not a lot we can do to stop it. We're not encouraging the use of the term. We've never used it in our advertising."According to the group, the "Seven-Star" notion was brought to being by a British journalist who visited the hotel on a pre-opening press trip. The journalist "described the Burj al Arab in her article as above and beyond anything she had ever seen and called it a seven-star hotel." so it is basically a very nice 5 star hotel
