They’re calling it ‘the most luxurious hotel ever built’, so I think we can be sure that no expenses were spared when it came to lavish over the top touches.
Take a look at the 13 Hotel, set to open in Macau, Philippines in the coming months. Just the $1,4 billion to build the hotel, with each room coming in at a whopping $7 million (R107 million).
Let’s run through some of the juicier information with the help of BusinessInsider. Bear in mind that these images below come from the hotel’s “Villa de Comte” rooms, which will be their entry-level accommodations:
The 23-story hotel has six different restaurants and bars to choose from, as well as a stunning design that incorporates Baroque elements with chic modern touches. Everything from the sculptures and wall coverings to the furniture was designed specifically for the property.
The hotel includes 200 large suites (which the hotel refers to as villas), that range from 2,000 square feet to 30,000 square feet. Luxurious touches include a range of period artworks, as well as a customized chrome furniture series for the living room, bedrooms, and bathrooms.
Guests can access each of the 200 villas through elevators that directly open to private lobbies.
Six to eight guests can relax in the ornate marble baths that sit underneath a vaulted ceiling supporting a crystal chandelier. When the Roman bath is not in use, it can be covered with a retractable marble flooring.
Rooms will also come complete with stained-glass and marble bathrooms, where ceilings illuminated with artwork are lit by a standing candelabra. A rain shower is hidden behind a floor-to-ceiling stained-glass facade.
The royal bedroom includes a king-sized bed complete with a velvet canopy. Each villa comes with 24-hour butler service, and additional amenities include a private luxury shopping area and complimentary airport transfers via Rolls-Royce Phantoms.
Not too shabby huh, now to flog some vital organs to afford a one night stay.
