Tucked in the secluded spot around Lake Geneva in Switzerland, The President Wilson Hotel discreetly accommodates the most important and famous people from around the globe. The hotel had once been the lodging for the likes of King of Pop Michael Jackson, former US President Bill Clinton, and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. The hotel also boasts to have had Richard Branson, Rihanna and the King of Saudi Arabia stay in the Royal Penthouse suite which is priced at $81,000 a night. The Royal Penthouse rate is almost three times the price of the Burj Al-Arab suite.
Why is it so staggeringly high, you ask? The nightly rate that could feed millions of starving children in Africa has every reason to be. The suite has 12 rooms, and each one has its own private bathroom. It spans 18,000 square feet, taking up the entire top floor of the hotel. The decor is not just about being comfortable but about having the finest things that life could offer. Fresh flowers perfume the whole suite, cased in large vases atop marbled fixtures. Paintings that adorn the walls befit the whole interior motif of elegance. Persian carpets cover the massive suite, so that every step is pleasant as well it is exquisite. Each room has a magnificent view of Lake Geneva. One could soak in the bubbly bathtub while looking out to a picturesque tranquil lake. Aside from the 12 rooms is a massive dining area suitable for a group of people. The guests can unwind in the gaming room for a round of billiards. For important decision making time, they can create momentous history in the elegantly designed, ultra-formal boardroom.
Marbled floor receiving area that is equipped with surveillance cameras and steel-lined entry doors. This ensures the safety of the VIPs, aside from the bullet proof windows, the armoured walls, a human-sized safe and other extensive security measures. Probably the only place that will leave the guest unguarded is the comfortable balcony facing the lake. The billionaire guests will have their own access to the helipad, which is essential when you’re head of state. The service includes a 24-hour butler, maids and chef. The lounge room has a 103-inch Bang & Olufsen television, which is an extremely rare entertainment feature in hotels. It is said that only three hotels around the hotel has this kind of technology that costs a whopping $130,000. Somewhere in the opulent suite is a Steinway grand piano that might have been used by Michael Jackson during one of his stays.
