Hotels are a great place to saty in when travelling. Some people like to rent appartments or crash at a friend’s place which is fine, but nothing beats having breakfast buffet, room service, and many other facilities. Although this is way over my budget (just looking at those prices is like punches to the stomach with a kick in the……you know what I mean guys! ). The only thing I can do is admire the pictures and hear the stories of those who have experienced the luxury of these hotels, I shall list them anyway. By the way, they are in no ranking order, but I decided to list them alphabetically. Here goes: (Source: Yahoo! Uk & Ireland Travel)

1. The Atlantis, Bahamas

The pic is of the Bridge Suite, overlooks the marina. Ten rooms at your disposal, including two bedrooms, a living room and dining room. You’ll also have your own private kitchen, which comes with its own chef, butler and other staff. Also, there’s an entertainment centre with bar and piano. And of course, walk-in closets that are bigger than many one-bedroom apartments. Cost: £14,500 per night.

2. Burj Al Arab, Dubai

With its distinctive “billowing sail” design, its position on its own man-made island and reputation for being just a smidgeon shorter than the Empire State Building (1,053 feet high), the Burj Al Arab certainly looks the part. And with its glittery gold, Versace-designed decor and underwater restaurant that is reached by submarine, it certainly has the wow factor. Book one of the Royal Suites and you’ll be whisked to the hotel by Rolls-Royce from the airport, where you’ll enjoy your own private cinema, rotating bed and whirlpool bath with Hermes bath products. Plus your own butler to tend to your every need. Cost: £11,800 per night.

3. Four Seasons, New York

Aaah, the Big Apple, very rarely do I see it portrayed as posh, but this takes the cake. Book the Ty Warner Penthouse, with boasting floor-to-ceiling windows offering a 360-degree view of Manhattan. The suite comes with its own indoor-outdoor Zen garden, infinity-edge bathtub and private spa. The suite includes the services of a personal trainer/therapist to help you work off those calories. Not to mention your own personal butler, and private chauffeur to ensure you get to wherever you need to go in your choice of Rolls-Royce or Mercedes Maybach. Cost: £23k per night.

4. Ritz-Carlton, Moscow

 
Furnished with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the Kremlin, Red Square and St Basil’s Cathedral, you’d be hard pressed to find a more amazing view. Add on the marble baths, living room with grand piano and beautiful Russian imperial furnishings and you’ll certainly feel immersed in luxury – plus you’ll enjoy up to five meals a day. Cost: £10,500 per night.

5. The Westin Excelsior, Rome

The Villa La Cupola suite, located on the fifth and sixth floors of the Westin Excelsior hotel, overlooks the Via Veneto and gets its name from the 12m-high, hand-frescoed cupola (domed roof) it is situated beneath. Further Roman touches can be found in the Pompeiian style Jacuzzi, complete with mosaic floors and frescoed walls. The suite also offers a private cinema, fitness room, sauna and steam bath, plus of course the 24-hour butler service and private limo airport transfers. What’s more, you’ll also have access to the suite’s private wine cabinet, with over 150 wines to choose from (personally wine ain’t my cup-o-tea, so I’ll skip that!).  Cost: £20,400 per night.

So fellas, how do you feel after that swift kick?! OUCH!!)
