What Does A $40,000 Hotel Room Get You
The Deepest Hole of Debt If That’s Your Yearly Income
What comes with a $40,000 per night in Las Vegas? If you’re a well-heeled traveler, it’s one night at the Hugh Hefner Sky Villa, a two-story, 10,000-square-foot hideaway with a $700,000 cantilevered Jacuzzi that juts over the Las Vegas Strip, a rotating bed beneath a mirrored ceiling and around-the-clock butler service. The Playboy-themed escape, which opened last fall at the Palms Casino Resort, is the most expensive of 101 hotel suites featured in a just-released annual survey by Elite Traveler, a magazine distributed aboard private jets and mega-yachts to readers with average household incomes of more than $5 million. Priced from $1,500 a night and up, the 101 suites come with various perks, such as a private indoor lap pool, personal chef and use of a six-figure Maserati Quattroporte sedan.
