1. Presidential Suite, The Plaza
Location: New York, New York
Luxury Trademark: A wine cellar, library and hotel staff at disposal
-----------------------------------------
Guests who are rolling in the dough can check into the same digs as tycoon Alfred Vanderbilt! The 28-year-old chose to make the brand-new Plaza hotel his bachelor pad back in 1907 when an entire year's bill was only $25,000. Since then, little has changed - except the prices. Now, one night's stay is a cool $15,000, and the Plaza is still heralded as the city's most elite hotel. The two-level Presidential Suite occupies the entire 18th floor of the hotel; plus, guests have access to a rooftop area. Within the 7,800-square-foot space, there are two living rooms, a parlor and a library. That's in addition to six bedrooms and seven - yes, seven - bathrooms. The suite also has a private wine cellar, four balconies and a staff of maids, a butler and chauffeur with a Rolls Royce. For those quick snacks, there's even a private chef on call at any hour of the day.
