capital city,
and yes if it looks like gold, it is gold, 24 karat gold as it happens,
the
five-star hotel is filled with golden touches, including gold tubs,
sinks, and yes, even toilets, according to Reuters,
there is even a
24-karat gold tiled infinity pool on the rooftop, located
near Giang Vo Lake, the 441-room hotel is 10
minutes away from Hanoi’s city center and quite a juxtaposition compared to the
other buildings in the area, which are mostly stark Soviet-era structures. “At
the moment, there is no other hotel like this in the world,” Nguyen Huu Duong,
chairman of Hoa Binh Group, which owns the property, told Reuters,
rooms start
at about $250 a night, relatively similar to the area’s other luxury hotels without
any gold adornments, the hotel even serves dishes topped with edible gold
flakes, and rooms have golden cups next to the coffee maker with gold-colored
details, I should of course say the gold is actually gold plated, but even so Duong said that about a ton (or 2,000 pounds) of gold was used to decorate the hotel, now how much could some unscrupulous person scrap off without anyone knowing? sweet dreams!
