Something like $4-500 a night for a beachfront bungalow out in the Tuomotu Islands of French Polynesia. Worth every cent. Our own porch facing the water, a hammock between two coconut palms, ocean breezes, a beautiful shower that had a door out to the beach. Heaven.
The title of this thread is what is the most you ever paid for a hotel room, so I'm not sure why people are including hotel stays that were paid by their employers.
The most expensive hotel that I personally paid for was the Hotel Negresco on the French Riviera in Nice.
The rate was 480 Euros which at the time worked out to about $720/night.
I guess the most expensive hotel I stayed at (although I paid with points rather than dollars), was at the Paris Marriott Champs-Elysees later on that same trip. IIRC, the rate was 699 Euros (~$1,050) night, although we "paid" 35,000 points/night for 3 nights. (I think it is now 45,000 points/night.)
I985 in Boston; 366 dollars per nite.Special occasion for three nites. The moved to Marriot Long wharf at 200 plus as I remember for two more nites. First was a French owned built in a old bank building as I recall. Forget the name tho in downtown. First was definitely first class compared to second which was all location being in old wharf area and looked kind of like a ship.
$1000 a night for the Mandarin Oriental in NYC. Totally worth it for the view. Central Park from the 45th Floor watching the sun set over Central Park? Heaven.
I'm sure I've paid a lot for hotel rooms in warm weather during season.
You got a deal. I paid $1200, but it was in December, which is always the most expensive month in NYC.
Was it worth it? I think so. It was our anniversary and it really made us feel like we were far away, even though we were only 1/2 hour from our house. Our 3 kids were still very young, and it was the first time we left them for 3 days (with my mother-in law), so we knew if there was any problem we could get back in a hurry.
I think the over water bungalow at the Hotel Bora Bora was around the same price, maybe a little less. That was on our honeymoon.
There's nothing wrong with that! While my most expensive hotel room per night was $350 (yes, I was reimbursed by my school, but I booked two rooms for a group with my debit card, spending $1,500 I didn't have up front, and wasn't reimbursed for two months until after the trip), I tend to go for much cheaper rates. If I feel good enough about a hostel, I'll go super cheap and try to find a rate of between $20-$40 per night (when I was in Sydney, I spent less than $20/night for my first week in town at a hostel by Kings Cross Station).
I usually pay between $75.00 and $95.00, but one time I paid $250.00 at a motel 8, but she was really worth it.
