The most beautiful hotel in the world,Ranking 10 Apeiron Island Hotel is a new 7 star hotel in Dubai

The most beautiful hotel in the world Ranking 10. Apeiron Island Hotel is a new 7 star hotel in Dubai

The Apeiron Island Hotel (also known as “The Rollmop”, “The Pringle”, and “The Funnel”) is a design concept seven star hotel that will be located 300 meters off the coast of Beirut, Lebanon. The meaning Apeiron is derived from the energy sustainability of the hotel. Developers are interested in this US $350 million (£173 million) project, though construction dates have not been set. If constructed, this will be the second (self-awarded) seven star hotel built in the world, other than the Burj Al Arab (located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates ). Prices of individual suites are not decided; however, the estimated prices will be in the proximity of that of Burj Al Arab’s (starting around US $28,000 a night)
The cosmological theory of Anaximander gave this hotel the name “Apeiron”. Anaximander believed that the beginning of time is infinite, and materials are subjected to self-renewal. As it turned out, the hotel’s energy sustainability concurs with this theory. This building’s energyefficiency is very self-sustainable; there are internal louvers on the infrastructure to protect the inside from direct sun light. In addition to that, these louvers contain solar cells to absorbed the sun light and generate energy. It is estimated that the hotel can generate approximately 70% of its own energy.  This emphasizes the Hotel’s name, "Apeiron", meaning infinity.


Apeiron, designed by Sybarite Architects , will have a dimension of 185 meters high, and a floor area of 200,000 m2 . This hotel will contain 28 floors above sea level, and a total of 438 luxury suites. Other statistical details of the Apeiron might include :
  • 14 passenger lifts
  • 8 service lifts
  • Suite size ranging from 180 m² to 750 m²
  • Wind load factor of 350 km per hour
  • Structure: Steel Reinforced Concrete








Features The Apeiron Hotel will have an underwater restaurant with views into a Crescent lagoon. The lagoon has an underwater landscape with seawater plant life and colorful corals designed to entertain guest during dinning . Visitors can also partake in the art gallery, cinema, conference facilities, and a shopping mall. A Health Club and Spa will be located On Level 00 and -01 (under the beach); these facilities contain private saunas, steam, and massage rooms. Also, the hotel will have different temperature-controlled fresh water swimming pools. Ascending to the 11th floor, there will be an outdoor garden with views down the atrium of the building and unobstructed view of the open sea.  Butterfly Jungle The top two floors will include a tropical species butterfly jungle (200 m above sea level). Control temperature and adjusted humidity along with a vivid backdrop of the Arabian Gulf will all be part of the design. There are only two ways to approach this edifice: helicopters and yachts . Yachts can moor at the core of the hotel at floor 0, or they can be parked directly beneath the hotel’s atrium. Helicopters are accommodated by the helipad on the 9th floor with direct bridge access to the building (55 meters above sea level).
