Six star [6 Star] hotels
Some members of the hospitality industry have claimed a six star rating for their operation. One example is the Crown Macau casino, on Taipa Island in the Chinese territory of Macau. Another is the St. Regis Shanghai Hotel in China. The only American six star hotel is South Beach's Setai. The Palazzo Versace on the Gold Coast in Australia is described by Australian Traveller magazine as meriting "six star" rating though level of rating is not used in Australia.[2]
Seven star [7 Star] hotels
Although the Burj Al Arab characterizes itself as the world's only 7-Star Hotel, several "7-Star" hotels are under construction. These include the Morgan Plaza to be finished in Beijing (China) in March 2008, the Flower of the East under construction in Kish, Iran, The Centaurus Complex under construction in Islamabad, Pakistan and the Pentominium, a complex planned for Metro Manila and The Royalties Castle for Davao City in the Philippines.

Burj Al Arab
The Burj Al Arab - Dubai - Jumeirah - One of the World's Best Hotels
The Burj Al Arab is a luxury hotel in Dubai, United Arab Emirates managed by the Jumeirah Group and built by Said Khalil. It was designed by Tom Wright of WS Atkins PLC. At 321 metres, it is the tallest building used exclusively as a hotel. However, the Rose Tower, also in Dubai, which has already topped Burj Al Arab's height, will take away this title upon its opening in April 2008. The Burj Al Arab stands on an artificial island 280 metres out from Jumeirah beach, and is connected to the mainland by a private curving bridge. It is an iconic structure, designed to symbolize Dubai's urban transformation and to mimic the sail of a boat.
