It completed a two year renovation last year, rumoured (at about 1 billion dollars), to be the most costly in history, the Palms Casino Resort now has one of the world’s most extensive art collections outside of a museum. The revamped 1395 rooms and suites include the Kingpin Suite, which houses bowling lanes ($15000 a night), and The Hardwood Suite, with its own basketball court ($20,000 a night).

 

Most expensive room?

The Empathy Suite: $100,000 a night

 

What do you get?

In this 8500 square foot, Damien Hirst-designed penthouse you’ll find an outdoor, cantilevered pool ‘hanging’ hundreds of feet in the air, pillars covered in his signature dots, six specially commissioned art works, including two sharks suspended in formaldehyde, a 13-seater bar and spectacular views over The Strip. But until our luck at the roulette table changes, we’ll be slumming it in one of the hotel’s other 702 rooms, which start from a mere $60.

 

Extra treats?

24-hour butlers, a chauffeured car and $10k credit to use in the resort.

 

Who stays?

If you’re a casino big spender (over a million dollars), you get to stay for free but they are tight- lipped about who has actually paid to sleep here.
