Water Discus Hotel – Dubai Goes Underwater

Dubai has always come up with some fantastic ideas over the years in order to enhance its tourism and business by developing some of the most outstanding structures in the state. The latest of such ideas is the underwater hotel “Water Discus Hotel” that is to be built in Dubai by Drydocks World in cooperation with the Big Invest Consult of Switzerland. This hotel is being designed by Deep Ocean Technology that is a Polish company and will have 21 rooms in total each with a capacity for two persons. This hotel can also rotate and it takes an extra-ordinary mind to imagine such an idea.

Ocean would be viewed from within the rooms and gigantic windows have been erected in order to give a pleasing view of the sea. The rooms will be 10 meters below the surface of the sea. The hotel can also rotate and to add to the attractions of the hotel, underwater diving training will also be given. There is a large disc shaped roof of the hotel as well which is above the sea level where a garden, a terrace, swimming pool and a spa are to allure the visitors into taking a look at its inside.

The hotel will certainly be another attraction among the charms of Dubai along with the world famous Palm Jumeirah islands and Burj Khalifa etc. Tourism, that has been the main focus of the city administration for the last decade or so, will certainly see a boost with this another addition in the marvels of Dubai. Dubai property that has recovered from the recession will further heighten with its induction and all these are good signs for the business community of the state.

The environmentalists are of the view that such hotels are better as compared to the ones built on land because there is no need to cut down the trees, ruin the natural view and make a building that earns for man only after disturbance in the lives of so many creatures.

Dubai has been successful in letting the people around the globe know of the other side of the Islamic world that is modern, dynamic and colorful. And its step to make the state economy base on tourism instead of the oil only is a proof of its administration’s far sightedness. It has been shining on the map of the world for the last thirty years; perhaps they have now decided that it’s time to shine below the surface of the Earth, under the oceans.
