The Royal Suite at the Ritz Carlton may have the best views in New York City. It has breathtaking panoramic, unobstructed views of Central Park.

It boasts custom furniture, Carrera marble bathrooms, two living rooms, two bathrooms, a dining room that seats 12, and a dedicated workspace. The artwork also sets this suite apart. The suite doubles as a private art gallery since it is decorated with specially commissioned, limited-edition pieces of art reflecting NYC life.

Everything in Las Vegas is a little extra, including the Empathy Suite designed by modern Artist Damien Hirst.

The artist is also known for preserving animals in formaldehyde, and this suite has two preserved sharks as part of the over-the-top décor. The Empathy Suite also boasts a pool on its private terrace, a private healing salt room, a private fitness room, and more.

Although the Waldorf Townhouse is located discreetly just off the hotel’s lobby, it has its own private entrance on Pennsylvania Avenue and a separate butler’s entrance. That makes it easy for suite residents to take advantage of all of the hotel’s amenities or experience a stay that truly resembles a stay in a private home. That’s the best of both worlds. The suite is just a few blocks from an even more famous Pennsylvania Avenue address, The White House. At over 6,000 square feet, this suite is the largest in Washington, DC, and is bigger than most McMansions. An average night in this opulent suite costs over $27,000.

However, many guests book a night (or two) to spend an evening in the suite’s outdoor glamping tent. The tent is decked out with a crystal chandelier, marble lamps, antique nightstands, and rugs. If guests want to head inside, the suite also has 750 square feet of indoor space, including a bedroom and marble kitchen.

Suite 1986 is part of Dolly Parton’s DreamMore resort and spa. However, up until 2022, the suite served as Parton’s tour bus and was where she often slept and worked while on tour. Parton put over 350,000 on the bus and wrote dozens of songs there. The Leading Lady of Country traveled in style, and Suite 1986 has Parton’s touches throughout. The suite has hand-painted murals, movie props, and a guitar. Other décor includes Parton’s signature blond wigs, some of her retired clothing, and jewel-encrusted shoes.  A stay in this one-of-a-kind suite includes a VIP dining experience featuring some of Parton’s favorites and southern specialties. Guests in Suite 1986 are also pampered with Dolly-themed goodies, including a vinyl album or a bottle of Dolly’s favorite perfume.  Because Patron made so many customizations to her bus, the suite’s square footage is unknown. However, the suite clocks in at a comfortable 45’x8′. The tour bus-turned-suite is booked for two nights at a time, and a stay costs $10,000.

Falling asleep in Sir Richard Suite involves using a high-tech Bryte Bed that continually adjusts pressure points throughout the night for maximum comfort. The mattress can also be set to warm or cool depending on a guest’s preference and can be customized in other ways. That means everyone who books a night can sleep, as well as the world’s hippest billionaire – as long as he’s not sleeping there himself. A stay in the suite also comes with access to the hotel’s Cadillac Escalade to use for trips around Downtown Dallas. Sir Richard’s Flat is 1,400 square feet, and rates average $2,000 per night.
