Creator's Key Takeaways
This is the most expensive hotel we've ever stayed at.
57 floors up, there's an infinity pool that wraps around the entire roof. The largest of its kind in the world.
I think this hot tub over here is a hidden gem.
This hotel is by far the best hotel that we've ever stayed at and I think the best hotel we'll probably ever stay at.
