Originally planned to include residential units, the Gevora Hotel is centrally located on Sheikh Zayed Road in the financial district of Dubai and became the world's tallest all-hotel building upon completion. The façade features a simple, classic design with many windows on every floor to allow a generous amount of sunlight into the building. Each corner of the rectangular building features gold-colored façade elements, which taper into a pyramidal crown structure at the top.
