A room at the hotel goes for $250 per night and apartments are available for rent there.
Meanwhile, the gold for the hotel was locally sourced to reduce building costs.
“We want the ordinary people to the super rich… to check-in. Our group has a factory that can do gold-plated stuff, so the cost for our equipment and furniture here is quite cheap,” Nguyen Huu Duong, the owner of the hotel, said.
