With everything that's going on in the world right now, somebody figured there's one thing that would make us all feel better: a new six-star hotel in Hanoi, Vietnam, complete with a 24K-gold-plated exterior and interior.
After over a decade of development, the Hanoi Golden Lake hotel is on schedule to be completed by the end of this year and the building is already attracting attention because of its unusual decor. The hotel is completely covered in Japanese-imported ceramic tiles infused with real 24K gold, and according to developers, patrons can expect more glorious gold decor on the inside as well. According to Hoa Binh Group, the company behind the project, this is the first hotel in the world to have both the exterior and interior covered in 24K gold.
Apart from the gilded exterior, it has a gold-plated lobby, as well as gold-plated furniture, sink, bathtub and a series of decorations and accessories covered in 24K gold. Amazingly, it won't be as expensive as you might think. As a US dollar goes a lot further in Vietnam these days, you can stay at the Hanoi Golden Lake hotel for about $250 per night.
