Abu Dhabi is the classy capital of UAE. If you can imagine Dubai as a city where the less than classy nouveau rich go to flaunt their wealth, Abu Dhabi is the city where very classy old monied jet-setters go to discreetly spend their money. The hotel cost over 2 billion US to build, rooms run from $500 to $15,000 a night, there are numerous penthouse suites reserved only for members of the Royal Emiratis, and Andrea Bocelli will be performing here next weekend (incase you have a little spare time & alotta spare change!) And yes, that is real gold on the walls and ceiling.
