Inside Dubai's Burj Al Arab
In the video, Lexie began by saying, "I'm staying at the world's only seven-star hotel, so let's do a room tour. This is the Burj Al Arab in Dubai, and every single room here is actually a two-storey grand suite."
Describing the lavish interiors, she added, "Pretty much every accent you see is coated in real gold, and even the toiletries in the bathroom are full-sized Hermès bottles. It's so big in here. It just keeps going."
Lexie also highlighted the hotel's personalised service, saying, "Every room also comes with a dedicated 24-hour butler, and mine offered to fully unpack my suitcase and put everything away in the closet for me."
Gold interiors, private butler and luxury suites
She went on to showcase some of the suite's standout features. "Even the TV appears out of nowhere at the click of a button. I just got back from dinner and while I was gone, the butler made a bubble bath jacuzzi for me. Are you kidding me? I'm not completely out of my tax bracket. It's fine," she joked.
The luxury continued the next morning. "In the morning, the butlers came in through the separate kitchen entrance and laid out the most insane breakfast spread I have ever seen in my life," Lexie said before asking her followers, "So tell me, would you stay here?"
How much does a night at Burj Al Arab cost
According to the official Jumeirah Burj Al Arab website, room rates at the iconic hotel vary depending on the travel dates, suite category and availability, as the property follows dynamic pricing.
