There are hotel suites worldwide that are so fancy they can command an eye-watering annual wage to stay for just one night. Here are the most expensive rooms in the world.
Hugh Hefner Sky Villa, Palms Casino, Las Vegas, USA

Royal Bridge Suite, Atlantis the Palm, Dubai
For a mere $10,000 you can stay in an underwater suite watching the fish from your bed, but if the extra cash is burning a hole in your pocket, stay in the Royal Bridge Suite on the top floor with views of Dubai from one balcony and the Arabian Sea from the other.
NZ$43,000 per night
Ty Warner Penthouse, New York, USA
A $50 million refurbishment of the Ty Warner Penthouse on the 52nd floor of the Four Seasons Hotel in New York has added even more wow. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer a 360 degree view of the city - from your bath. Get someone in to play your grand piano (oh go on, invite Elton John) or just enjoy being pampered in your own spa.
