The Cheapest 5 Star Hotels In The World
- Many of travel destinations I’ve been to in this video. I made it into a video until I can get back there.
- I tried not to copy Laura’s article too much and make it my own, but if it ain’t broke why fix it?
($28, I KNOW RIGHT) Novotel Ahmedabad Hotel — Ahmedabad, India ($28 freaken dollars)
According to Top Dollar and Laura , the Novotel Ahmedabad Hotel is the cheapest luxury hotel in the world, with rates starting at a shockingly low $28 a night.

The property caters to business travelers, but vacationers will be spoiled, too, with an outdoor pool, a spa, a gym and a restaurant serving Korean and Japanese cuisine.
FYI. I do judge a vacation spot based on the food choices. If the food isn’t good, I’m not gonna be happy.
