The Flower of the East Hotel will be a 200 room, 7-star luxury hotel planned to be built on Kish Island in the Persian Gulf by 2009.
The Flower of the East Hotel will be the centerpiece of the 1.7 billion Euro Flower of the East project. The tower is a combination of Persian and modern high-tech architecture. It's supposed to be the world's second 7-star hotel after the Burj Al Arab in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Due to location of the Flower of the East Hotel, every sunrise is viewed by the hotel residents. The hotel is surrounded by a park all around.
When the hotel is complete, Iran will boast the highest number of 7-star hotels in the world with a total of two (Flower of the East Hotel and The Solar Powered hotel).
