Building
The hotel is located on the Palm Jumeirah, an artificial archipelago in the United Arab Emirates. The hotel was built by ASGC Construction.[4] Construction of the hotel faced a variety of issues during construction such as the site’s de-watering. Given that there were no closed shores near the site along with water having the ability to come in from multiple locations, the company had to adopt a variety of de-watering methods.
