OF all your travels..what was the fanciest, most expensive hotel you ever stayed at?

How much did it cost?

Did you book it online or call up hotels from the yellow pages?

I would say the most expensive is where I am staying now.. it's not the fanciest

in the least..no ammenities..but it's 1000.00 a month.. all utilities paid.

There is full size fridge, little kitchenette..it's just one room

I booked it from a respnose on craigslist..it's call extneded stay hotel.

What about you?

The most expensive hotel I've stayed at was actually a bed and breakfast. It was $200 per night, but it was FUN! We only stayed one night. In the evening the place had a happy hour where all the guests gathered for a snack which was big enough to be a meal, and a free bar. The breakfast was free in the morning, too. I think it was well worth the price. I can't wait to go to another bed and breakfast.


myLot reputation of 93/100. littlefranciscan (4683)   ranked 1 out of 160 in travel  5 months ago

Wow at $200 a night that is quite expensive..How did you come to find this hotel/bed and breakfast? Did you do a search online..or was it recommended by a friend?


myLot reputation of 97/100. blueunicorn (1272)   ranked 75 out of 160 in travel  4 months ago

It really wasn't too bad once you consider we got 4 meals out of it- two meals at the happy hour, then 2 breakfasts. The B&B was near the Grand Canyon Railroad, which we had riden on that day as a tour.

I traveled a lot for the Company I used to work for, we usually had to stay at the medium rate motels, I had a credit card and registered for points at all the chains! I was driving thru Denver on my way to Salt Lake City this was in Early November, I didn't know the area and wanted to get thru Denver to avoid early traffic so I got to one of the resort ski towns and went in to a Marriott, used the card it was about $85.00 still off season rates! I gave them my points card and soon was heading up to the room! WOW! it was a master suite over looking the ski mountain! They were making snow and there were some snow boarders out! the room was made for a king! I called the desk and made sure there was no mistake, and was told it was the last weekend before the rates went up and since I was a card member they wanted to treat me right! I was blown away! There was a hot tub in the room and one on the balcony, a coffee grinder for the fresh coffee in the morning, giant HDTV in the bedroom and one in the main room, a computer with a giant monitor. The whole works, glass, glasses, not plastic, I could go on and on. As I traveled for a living I was not aware that they even had rooms that nice! wink tdemex

$85 is till kind of reasonable. I hear rates here in NJ at $89 just plain jane run of the mill hotel room. .the more features the higher you et. I have found that if you have "extended stay" you get the better per night rate.

I was traveling around Turkey with my ex-boyfriend. He didn't like the accommodation available in the towns and villages that we went to. He liked the sleeping car we were in on a train. When we got back to Istanbul he wanted some luxury. He booked a couple of nights in a really pricey hotel. It cost in the region 100 dollars a night. It had a traditional type bathroom. Wow!

Also when I was dating him we went to the Seychelles and he again liked high quality accommodation. I had booked us budget type places but he hated them. I got in to go in one of the guest houses. He paced around the island all night unable to go to bed from the fear of all the insects. I had an insect net and slept soundly. He got us to check into a pricey lodge style hotel. It cost about 100 euros a night.

For both those accommodations we booked in person once we had arrived in the destinations.

I have never been to the mideast. I would assme things are less pricy then the USA yet ..in Turkish money things can be high to people there. Glad that you and your BF are so close that you decided together on where is best to stay.

Because I worked for the school district I have stayed in some of the best including hotels in Aspen Colorado. I tried to save the school money by staying in cheap hotels but the administration made fun of me so I joined them.


myLot reputation of 93/100. littlefranciscan (4683)   ranked 1 out of 160 in travel  5 months ago

If I worked for the school district i would probably have no quams about allowing them to pay the rates they wanted since usually teachers are one of the lower paid emploments... I hear.. is this so in Colorado?

I stayed at a very fancy hotel in New York whose name I don't recall. I was speaking at the Ford Foundation. I remember it didn't look like any hotel I'd ever seen. It looked like a little house. Next weekend, I'm staying at the Boston Plaza Hotel for another conference. This time, courtesy of the National Foundation for the Arts which is giving me a grant for half the project and my mother has put up the money for the other half. I'm expecting that to be really fancy.


myLot reputation of 93/100. littlefranciscan (4683)   ranked 1 out of 160 in travel  5 months ago

What is this type of work you do that you are giving conferences..Sounds like my employer who is the Ceo and owner of the company..It's nice to know people on top>


myLot reputation of 87/100. cripfemme (5774)   ranked 8 out of 160 in travel  5 months ago

To clarify, I'm not giving the conference. I'm going to the conference and usually speaking at them. That's why I get to stay in fancy hotels free or cheap. Someday I would like to give a conference, but I haven't yet.

The most expensive hotel I stayed in the State Ministry of Finance House.Is to give our region to go for grain storage.That hotel in our capital.Because it is public funds can be reimbursed.And we went to several individuals.So I did not then asked the price.But I know it is surely very expensive.Because they are stars.Also entertain a lot of foreign guests.


myLot reputation of 93/100. littlefranciscan (4683)   ranked 1 out of 160 in travel  5 months ago

For me, the most expensive (and probably fanciest) hotel that I have stayed at was Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. It was very nice. I think my share was $200 per night but I'm not entirely sure. My friends picked it.

Usually I stay places that I've heard of because a friend has stayed there.


myLot reputation of 93/100. littlefranciscan (4683)   ranked 1 out of 160 in travel  5 months ago

$200 a night? O my that would take a few days pay away from my bank.just in one night.. Was it very nice? what were some of the ammenities for that price?

I wasn't able to stay at it, but it was for an excursion and it was at the Marriott Hotel on the Gold Coast. It was sooo fancy that the stair case was as wide as anything and had special red carpet that went to the top. The most expensive room had a special toilet for cleaning your bum.:S. It was like $1000 a night just to stay at it.


myLot reputation of 93/100. littlefranciscan (4683)   ranked 1 out of 160 in travel  5 months ago

$1000 a night that would take all my pay for 2 weeks and then some:)( What did they offer as ammenities?? I don't think I would care too much for water shooting me when I sit..lol!!

cathrinekhor (43)   ranked 77 out of 160 in travel  5 months ago

I planned and saved my money for a whole year just to stay in Hard Rock Bali on the New Year Eve. I usually saved my money then only to travel at the end of the year.


cathrinekhor (43)   ranked 77 out of 160 in travel  5 months ago

Cant remember the exact name but I visited there with my ex for our honey moon. Our room over looked the ocean and there was a staff who brought us things to eat and drink.

Wasnt that wonderful that the staff was caring..You said you visited with your "ex"? Was it while you were still together? Was nice that he took you there..?
