At.mosphere is located on Level 122 of Burj Khalifa, at a height of 442 metres (1,350 ft). It is only two levels below ‘At the Top, Burj Khalifa,’ the world’s highest observatory deck with an outdoor terrace. The outlet offers two exceptional dining experiences – a vibrant lounge and a delectable grill, the company says.
The entrance is through Burj Khalifa’s Corporate Suites lobby with guests exiting the express elevator on Level 123 to face a two-storeyed glass atrium. A flight of cantilevered staircases lead them to the arrival lobby where they can enjoy panoramic views of the city.
