Have you ever asked yourself, while staying at the Days Inn, why they don’t have a Maybach with driver at your beck and call? I know I have. But if this has ever happened to you, head to New York City – the Four Seasons is the place you want to be.
They are sticklers for details at the Four Seasons. It reminds me of how things are at my house:
The placement of every object in the room is detailed in a book of more than 50 pages. Then housekeeping staff knows “how many hangers are in the closet, where flowers are placed on tables, how far is a table placed from the piano. How far is the Montblanc blotter from the lamp on the desk.”
Amen. If the Montblanc blotter is only and inch from the lamp on my table, there will be Hell to pay, let me tell you.
As an aside, who are these anal-retentive people that care so much? And I don’t mean the staff – they have to deal with the holier-than-thou crowd that stays in these sorts of rooms. I mean the stuck-up superstars and billionaires that actually pay $35,000 for a single night in a room. Let’s see, stay a night, or buy an African village? Decision, decisions.
And let’s not leave Las Vegas out of the picture for overpriced suites:
For the most expensive hotel suites, the high price tags are often part of the allure for guests. Johnna Magliano from Baltimore stayed in the country’s most expensive suite, the $40,000 a night Hugh Hefner Sky Villa at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, for her May 2 wedding. She and her husband said their vows next to the room’s pool, featuring a Playboy Bunny symbol.
Because nothing says love and fidelity like Hugh Hefner.
