Pros Where to start? This feels like a stunning New York loft. Top-quality wooden floors are complemented by an entirely open-plan layout, floor-to-ceiling windows and exposed concrete beams. You are 59 floors up, with stunning 270-degree views of the sea, desert, Marina and Palm Jumeirah. The kitchen is fitted with Boffi and Miele appliances and a glass-fronted, humidified cellar dominates the living room. Oh, and you get five parking spaces.
Cons The price will obviously be a deterrent to many, given that there are only two bedrooms.
They say An architectural wonder.
We say We love the minimalist styling. It's so un-Dubai.

- Salah Abdeslam, the only survivor of the terrorists, did not directly participate in the attacks, thought to be due to a technical glitch in his suicide vest

How to wear a kandura
Dos
- Wear the right fabric for the right season and occasion
- Always ask for the dress code if you don’t know
- Wear a white kandura, white ghutra / shemagh (headwear) and black shoes for work
- Wear 100 per cent cotton under the kandura as most fabrics are polyester
Don’ts
- Wear hamdania for work, always wear a ghutra and agal
- Buy a kandura only based on how it feels; ask questions about the fabric and understand what you are buying

Why are asylum seekers being housed in hotels?
The number of asylum applications in the UK has reached a new record high, driven by those illegally entering the country in small boats crossing the English Channel.
A total of 111,084 people applied for asylum in the UK in the year to June 2025, the highest number for any 12-month period since current records began in 2001.
Asylum seekers and their families can be housed in temporary accommodation while their claim is assessed.
The Home Office provides the accommodation, meaning asylum seekers cannot choose where they live.
When there is not enough housing, the Home Office can move people to hotels or large sites like former military bases.
