Bangalore: From the largest number of fountains in a hotel to the largest and highest hotel in the world, or a massive sick bag collection - it's always good to keep a sense of modesty and wit while travelling. So here is a list of crazy, zany and the most impressive mix of the most exceptional and unmatched feats relating to travel till date.
Largest Hotel:
According to Guiness World Records, the First World Hotel in the Genting Highlands Resort Pahang Darul Makmur is the largest hotel in the world. Many people also refer to this hotel as the Las Vegas of Malaysia. The hotel has 6,118 rooms and was completed in 2005 and currently stands as a multi-hued, colossal Lego-brick-like construction above the Ulu Kali Peak which is an hour away from Kuala Lumpur.
The hotel has a tropical jungle at the entrance of the hotel as well as ten restaurant's which confirms that this is a hotel that doesn't do anything small!
Most Expensive hotel suite:
Coming with extravagant views of Lake Geneva and Mount Blanc, the Royal Penthouse Suite at the President Wilson Hotel in Geneva, Switzerland is the world's most expensive hotel room that covers the entire top floor of the hotel. The four bedrooms, personalized Jacuzzi and private cocktail terrace can be all yours for a choke-on-your-champagne price of US$65,000 per night.
The room comes for a cost of a small terraced house in some parts of the U.K.! So take your friends along and split the bill we say!
Largest hotel lobby: Listed by Guinness World Records for having the world's largest hotel lobby, the Hyatt Regency in San Francisco, California has awe-inspiring views of the cove from its rooms and the roof top Lounge Bar but many guests don't usually get past the hotel's reception. Many walk in and stand in awe, ogling at the 15-story-high foyer.
At 107 meters long, 49 meters wide and 52 meters high, the atrium is on the record the biggest hotel lobby in the world - and it's ornamented with sweet fairy lights. You won't be capable of omit the metallic 'pan-scourer' figurine.
Smallest Hotel:
Having room for only two visitors and with 53 square meters of floor-space on the whole, the Eh'hausl Hotel in Amberg, Germany holds the record for being the tiniest hotel in the world and is also a historically important building which was built in 1728 sandwiched between two bigger houses.
The name of the hotel literally means "a wedding house and couples in the 18th century who wanted to marry buying the house, getting marriage certificate and then quickly selling off the house to bend the local marriage law".
Oldest Hotel:
The coronet for oldest hotel in the world was held by the Hoshi Ryokan in Komatsu, Japan which was operating since 717 AD. While you might be thinking that nothing can outrun this feat, but this feat has been outshined by the newest oldest hotel - the Nisiyama Onsen Keiunkan in Yamanashi, Japan. The rumor has it that this hot spring inn has been in business since 705 AD - which means it would have greeted their first guest a few centuries after the fall of the Roman Empire in the West and just before Japan's historic Nara Period began!
