Another famous building designed by Tom Wright is the Jumeirah Beach Hotel. This hotel was designed in 1993 and it played an integral part of the Jumeirah Beach Resort development. This hotel design was inspired by a wave and it is the complement of the Burj Al Arab hotel that was built around the same time. It is a 275-meter long impression of a large blue wave and the long layered facades add to the impression of a wave swelling and breaking. When it was completed in 1997 it was 93 meters high. It is located on one of the best beaches of Dubai with over 33,800 sq meters of sand for guests to enjoy. The hotel is 26 stories with each of its 598 rooms facing toward the Arabian Gulf and Burj Al Arab. It also offers 16 restaurants and a yacht marina.
