Makkah Clock Tower going to be the World’s Tallest Hotel

Jan 27, 2010 No Comments by admin

Sleek, Stylish and another Record Breaker, the Rose Rayhaan hotel soars up to 333 meters in air, making it the tallest hotel not only in Dubai but all over the world. Apart from being certified as the world’s tallest hotel by Guinness Book of World Record, it has everything that you can expect from a luxurious hotel. Hotel is bearing 481 spacious rooms and suites equipped with kitchenette, in-room cabinets, laundry & dry cleaning services, complimentary coffee & tea, 24 hours high-speed broadband internet access and wide washroom. A wonderful combination of comfort packed with personalized services. Please note that the hotel is alcohol-free.

However, the title as of world’s tallest hotel is soon going to be snatched when the Fairmont Hotels and Resorts group initiates the Makkah Clock Royal Tower. The Makkah Clock Tower will be 577 meters high, having 76 storeys and it’s scheduled to be opened in 3rd quarter of the year 2010.

The tower will also house the Emaar Residences. The Makkah Clock Royal Tower in Saudi Arabia is set to become a key destination for Middle East travelers and wealthy pilgrims performing the hajj. The super-luxurious hotel will be situated in the holy city of Makkah with 858 rooms and also the world’s largest clock that is 40 meter high. It will offer various dining options and conference facilities.  The hotel will also include the Lunar Observation Center and Islamic Museum to add fascination for the visitors. Fairmont is planning to open seven more properties this year, one is in Makkah and other properties include Fairmont Pacific Rim in Vancouver, Fairmont Pittsburgh, Fairmont Beijing and the Fairmont Zimbali Resort which sits along South Africa’s sublime east coast.

Knowing how keen is Dubai to hold all such titles ( world’s tallest building, largest man made island, etc). Should we expect an announcement anytime soon, announcing the construction of an even taller hotel?
