The Emirate’s Palace Hotel, recently named the finest hotel in the Middle East, is attempting to be listed in the Guiness Book of World Records by offering a One-Week Stay (7 Night) stay at the all too tempting price of $1 Million. Yes, thats a 1 with 6 zeros and 2 commas in US Dollars.

I couldnt post this without giving you some pictures to go along with it. Afterall, you need to know what a Million dollar hotel room looks like!

If you’re thinking about going to stand outside this extravagant joint to take pictures (LOL) they are located in Abu Dhabi. That is approximately 30 minutes from the United Arabs Emirate airport and 120 minutes from Dubai Airport.

I priced a five-night stay from September 15 - September 20th, 2008 and the grand total (for a regular room) was $9,688.32 AED which equals $2,637.06 USD tax included. The rack rate is $1392 AED/night which is $389.89 USD per night without tax. Also, the total amount for the room is due up front, in this case one month before travel. The Palace Suite, the room you get with the $1 Million Package, is $25,000 AED/night or $6,804.72.

In the words of every popular hip hop song in the last 6 months…it ain’t tricking if you got it!

Legal Stuff: All pictures are courtesy of the Emirates Palace photo library, which said we were to include dates and copyrights, but I’m not sure how to do that. So please know, should you decide to sue, that we only made $15 last month.
