Underwater Hotel Planned in Dubai
Amazing
underwater hotel architecture planned, for those who like traveling and new
experiences to live under the sea, may be trying to water discus hotel. unique
and world innovative technology and concept underwater hotel location in
Dubai,United Arab Emirates. Dubai building company Drydocks World has signed a
contract with Swiss firm BIG InvestConsult on behalf of technology owner Deep
Ocean Technology (DOT), to develop underwater hotel, The concept, being now
under the implementation phase, is especially favourable for extension of
hotels & resorts into the underwater world.
“Water
Discus Hotels comprise two discs – an underwater and above-water one. This
combination will allow guests to admire the depths of the ocean while making
the most of the warm climate. The two parts of the structure are connected by
three solid legs and a vertical shaft containing a lift and stairway. The size
of each disc has been adjusted to local conditions.
Underwater
Hotel Safety was a top priority for both designers of the structure and a team
of professionals who worked out the maintenance procedures. The Water Discus
complex was designed to ensure safety at all times, even in the most adverse
weather conditions. The structure sits up on three sturdy legs fixed to the
seabed, and the upper disc is suspended above the water surface. These two
technical solutions will ensure that Water Discus remains safe even in the
event of a fairly high tsunami, which can normally flood the nearest coastal
areas.
The disc,
located up to 10 metres beneath the surface of the sea, is composed of 21 hotel
rooms adjacent to the underwater dive centre and a bar. Each room is integrated
with the underwater world as closely as possible, offering a surprisingly
direct, yet safe contact with the local flora and fauna. Transport facilities
were designed not only to support logistics but also to improve safety. The
upper deck of the complex, for example, is connected to the shaft and can be
used as a landing pad for helicopters, ensuring a quick and convenient
transport.”
