Have you ever been fortunate enough to stay in one of these hotels (even outside of the suites listed here)? If not, do you have a favorite hotel due to its location, view, amenities?

I am surprised that the 7-star hotel in Dubai Burj Al Arab didn't make the list. I have never stayed at any hotels on this list and I don't think I ever will unless I marry a very wealthy man! lol My favorite ones from the pics you posted is the hotel in the Bahamas and the one in Cannes...

Have you ever been fortunate to stay in any of these hotels? ... err. No! In fact, how much money do you need to be making to even consider staying here? Wow... I'm in the wrong profession!

What's wrong with staying at a Travelodge?

Well hotels in Bangkok are not quite that expensive but you can almost buy a condo there for that price. Who in the heck has that kind of money. Michael Jackson may have at one point but i recall some hotel making a collection effort for back rent if I am not mistaken.

Not stayed at any of these, but you won't find a more delightfully eccentric hotel than the Hotel Portmeirion, Wales: lat 52.91, long -4.1
