The building was designed by Wimberly Allison Tong and Goo (WATG). The design of the hotel aims to incorporate traditional Arabian elements such as the grand dome and 114 smaller domes spread over the building. The colour of the building aims to reflect different shades of sands found in the Arabian Desert. Construction started in December 2001 and the hotel opened its gates in February 2005.
