Photos: Dubai Set To Open World's First Hotel With Its Own Rainforest
Dubai will soon be home to another spectacular claim to fame despite being already famous for the world’s tallest building, massive artificial islands. The world's first hotel with its own rainforest is scheduled to open in the desert city in 2018 - complete with an artificial beach, splash pool and trees that spray mist.
With a reported build cost of £230million, the Rosemont Hotel & Residences is the latest example of over-the-top luxury in the emirate, which has fast become a go-to destination for holidaymakers and a major hub for air travel between the West and Asia.
Renderings of the five-star hotel and apartment project, which will be operated by the Hilton brand Curio, offer a glimpse into what the 75,000-square foot, man-made jungle will look like when it opens to visitors.
It will be located inside a five-storey podium at the base of two 47-storey towers, and filled with exotic plants to make for a unique guest experience.
The attraction will cater to families thanks to its artificial beach and pool, and is said to be the first rainforest in the Middle East.
