The World's 10 Most Expensive Hotel Suites
The Wealth Bulletin has compiled a new list of the World's Top Ten Most Expensive Hotel Rooms, and the first and second both cost over $30,000 per night. And despite glum economic prospects, demand for these costly suites is as strong as ever, with waiting lists stretching from now until the end of December. Also worth noting is the appearance of Dubai (the Burj Al Arab's Royal Suite, above) and Moscow hotels on the list, which would have been unheard of just a couple years ago. Here are the Top 10:
1. Ty Warner Penthouse, Four Seasons, New York; $34,000 per night
2. Royal Penthouse Suite, President Wilson Hotel, Geneva; $33,000 per night
3. The Presidential Suite, Hotel Cala di Volpe, Costa Smeralda, Italy; $21,000 per night
4. Royal Suite, Burj Al Arab, Dubai; $18,000 per night
5. Royal Armleder Suite, Le Richemond, Geneva; $17,500 per night
6. The Ritz-Carlton Suite, The Ritz-Carlton, Moscow; $16,500 per night
7. The Royal Suite, Four Seasons George V, Paris; $16,000 per night
8. The Imperial Suite, Park Hyatt-Vendôme, Paris; $15,500 per night
9. Brook Penthouse, Claridges, London; $10,000 per night
10. Penthouse Suite, Hotel Martinez, Cannes; $9,300 per night

The Bridge Suite at Atlantis (Bahamas) is/was $25,000. Query what inflation/dollar devolution has done to the list.

It has been renamed: The Congressional Suite.

It's extremely sad that someone would even consider charging or paying that much for a hotel room, with all of the suffering and starving in the world. Find something better to do with the money you have been blessed with (or is it cursed with).

The whole arena of super-luxury goods and services has a weirdness about it. My impression is that there is something immature about it, in tems of personality development. And there are people who are cannily focused on exploiting that immaturity. It seems like a mutually exploiting coterie of personalities stuck at some kind of narciccisstic level of development. Mature personalities are capable of restraint, and also capable of sensing the background against which their actions take place. It seems like there is something deeply pathological and unattractive this level of excess. On the one hand, the implulse is to envy them, but that's just an impulse...until you think about it and imagine what it is like to be in an environment like that. The rush at the beginning...and then the adaptation to it, which any human brain does. In the end, for the human brain, Versaille ends up as just a roof over your head. So why not have your challenge be RESTRAINT? That's much more interesting than mindless spending and the excess that these hotel rooms represent.

The bummer with paying these prices is you have to be awake to enjoy it. I hope a free breakfast comes with the price.

The greed of some people is so disgusting! For the same amount of money as one night in one of these obnoxious, garrishly decorated suites one could feed starving children, help provide appropriate health care here in America and abroad! Shame on you who buy into this gluttony - be evermindful your Karma......

To those who say that they should not spend the money on these rooms and "unneccessary" luxuries, I think you are wrong. It is their money that they worked for. For the most part, it wasn't handed to them and they should be free to spend it as they wish. As for the starving people in the world, they have to take control of their own lives--they can't wait for someone else to come and bail them out. Sure the wealthy elite could send all their money to the poor and create social programs that would benefit the greater good, but wouldn't that go against the whole principle of hard work=the good life? Many of them DO donate...lavishly. Get over your jealous attitude toward the wealthy and worry about yourself. Nuff said. jasoncb4@vt.edu...email if you want to debate!!!

Those of you who think staying in a ridiculously expensive suite is immoral need to remember that it is immoral to judge and expensive is relative. At the same time, I agree with Jason that many of the people who crave this sort of thing are immature and I would add, will probably regret the expenditure at another point in their life (anyone remember MC Hammer?). Additionally, only a few people pay the advertised prices and most are treated gratis for some reason or another.
