Abraj Al Bait Towers, Makkah - World's Tallest & Largest Hotel Upon Completion

Abraj Al-Bait Towers
also known as the
Mecca Royal Clock Hotel Tower
is a complex under construction building in Mecca, Saudi Arabia by the Saudi Binladin Group.

Upon completion, the tallest tower in the complex would stand as the tallest building in Saudi Arabia, tallest and largest hotel in the world, with a planned height of 595 m (1,950 ft).

Upon completion, the structure would have the largest floor area of any structure in the world with 1,500,000 square metres (16,137,600 sq ft) of floorspace. This is the same as Terminal 3 at Dubai International Airport, in the United Arab Emirates which is the current record holder.

It will also surpass the Rose Tower in Dubai as the world's tallest hotel. It is also the second tallest building under construction. The entire project is estimated to be completed in fall of 2010.
