If you're wondering where this hotel is, it isn't a hotel at all...It is a home!
It's owned by the family of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, The late President of the United Arab Emirates and ruler of Abu-Dhabi. (Now you know why the oil prices just keep on rising...)

Sorry, I don't care how much money you have, it's so bizzare to see all these rich people live like this. If you are a believer in God, which God lived in a place like this. Can't a simple home suffice and use the rest of wealth to make the world a better place.

Its great to see these palaces.Everyday I pass by such palaces and tombs, animals S*** on their graves,some of them are even turned into garbage place.The glorious days have gone.
I wish these people were smart enough to think life beyond this.What difference does it make if they make graves/pyres made of gold or silver.The crux is these things diminish with time.People remember you for your good and evil deeds but they love/admire/worship you if you have done welfare of the society. Those who do not believe, I can upload pics of those powerful men in this thread.I call them Ageless Losers.

QUOTE If you're wondering where this hotel is, it isn't a hotel at all-Reeth Those photos it seems are of the Emirates Palace Hotel. You may also find some of these photos on the Hotel's website. I presume that is what Shaibaal pointed out. Many of the sheikhs, emirs, kings & queens as well as other royalty around the world must definitely be owning such extravagant stuff. Lets not forget the corporate billionaires too. India's richest ' Mr. Mukesh Ambani' is spending just a couple of billion $ on his 27 story residence. For sure some of the rich & mighty around the globe indulge in a vulgar display of wealth.
