Written By The Inn at Fox Hollow | 08/21/19 | 4 min read

When it comes to Long Island hotel accommodations, few in the Gold Coast area can hold a candle to the Inn at Fox Hollow. Beautifully meshing luxury with comfort, the Inn is the premier boutique hotel on the North Shore of Long Island.

But while luxurious with all the right amenities, sprawling lush grounds, and a central location, the Inn at Fox Hollow’s packages are still an affordable option when you want to spend time away from your home base. It’s a rejuvenating getaway that won’t clear out your bank account.

The same cannot be said for some of the world’s most lavish hotels. With exotic locations and pampering that would make royalty blush, accomodations for one night at these hotels will cost a full year’s pay for most of us. But let’s dream for a moment and examine the top five most lavishly priced hotels around the world, listed from “lowest” priced to the heights of dizzying extravagance.

For a taste of the elite life in France, you’ll need to pay about $54,000 for one night in a luxury suite.
