The Skypark Resort and hotel in Singapore is a 55 storeys high building which has a roof top which will enthrall you. Skypark that was built atop the Marina Bay Sands hotel in Singapore.The Skypark is the world’s most expensive hotel. The Skypark hotel, has 2,560 rooms costing from £350 a night, was officially opened 24th June 2010 with a concert by Diana Ross. The roof of the Skypark resort is in the shape of a ship which is longer than the Eiffel Tower.
As infinity pools go, this particular one takes the concept right to the edge. 55 floors above the streets of Singapore, the pool at the city’s newest resort – the £4billion Marina Bay Sands – is open for business.
The Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi, estimated to have cost £2billion when it opened in 2004, was previously the world’s most expensive hotel.
But with its indoor canal, opulent art, casino, outdoor plaza, convention centre, theatre, crystal pavilion and museum shaped like a lotus flower, the Marina Bay Sands has taken its crown.
The infinity pool on the roof is in the ‘SkyPark’ which spans the three towers of the hotel. The platform itself is longer than the Eiffel tower laid down and is one of the largest of its kind in the world.
The Skypark resort will employ 10,000 people directly and generate up to £48m each year. Entrance to the casino alone is nearly £50 a day – but an average of 25,000 people have visited the casino daily since its initial phased opening two months ago.
Thomas Arasi, president and chief executive officer of the resort, said he expects to attract an astonishing 70,000 visitors a day once it is fully open.
