London, April 14 (ANI): The Goring Hotel, where Kate Middleton stayed on the eve of the royal wedding, is celebrating the Queen's Diamond Jubilee by offering the world's most expensive package holiday.
Chosen by the Duchess of Cambridge as her home-from-home before she married Prince William, the family-owned hotel near Buckingham Palace is selling a four-night package for the Jubilee weekend in June for a staggering 1 million pounds.
"We understand it is a niche product, as it is definitely the most luxurious Diamond Jubilee package on the market," the Telegraph quoted a spokesman for the hotel as saying.
"It hasn't gone on sale just yet, but we think it will be of interest to customers," he added.
The package includes four nights in the Royal Suite, where Kate spent her last night as a commoner; a reception on arrival with vintage Cristal champagne; a specially created Jubilee dinner; the use of a chauffeur-driven Bentley; a horse-and-carriage ride retracing the Queen's original Coronation route; and an afternoon tea for two.
A bespoke diamond ring from De Beers is perhaps the highlight of the package.
The hotel insists that the holiday is a snip.
"You definitely save money with the package. The ring itself is worth 1 million pounds, so, with additional services like the horse and carriage and chauffeur-driven Bentley, you get more than your money's worth," the spokesman said.
Guests unable to afford the Royal Suite can go for the hotel's Diamond Jubilee cocktail - at 120-pound a glass.
"The 1952" is based on a royal favourite - a gin martini with a dash of Noilly Prat vermouth. Drinkers are allowed to keep the Swarovski glass in which the cocktail is served.
Before the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's wedding last year, the Middleton family took over the five-star hotel, which the Queen and other members of the Royal family have often visited.
The bill for the hire of the 71-room hotel is estimated to have been 85,000 pounds. (ANI)
