From our article you will learn about seven-star hotels. Officially, the hotel rating system ends with five stars. But there are few hotels in the world that are commonly referred to as seven-star hotels. Why is that? Often this is either a beautiful description made by journalists, or a marketing ploy of the hotel itself. Although when looking at the rooms it is sometimes very difficult not to agree with the title of "seven-star hotel", as the level of luxury in them just rolls over. So, let's see where such hotels are located, why they are good, why they are so rated. In addition, we will consider the cost of accommodation for the night.

For accommodation per day you need to pay from 42 thousand rubles per person. The building of the seven-star hotel was built in 1884. Previously, it belonged to the ruler of the principality of Hyderabad, who was the richest man in the world at that time. That is, the word "palace" in the title can be considered justified.
In the fifties of the last century, this building was abandoned, and it was already bought out in the 2000s. Restoration work began in 2010 under the leadership of Princess Ezra, the first wife of the VIII Nizam of Hyderabad. It was thanks to her that the palace was recreated in all its splendor.
