Do you hear bells ringing? We do! <p>While it's not as advanced as the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2010/10/20/95855/938/hotels/Guess_the_Hotel_with_the_Luxury_Techie_Toilet">cans at the Peninsula Tokyo</a>, the Neorest still rises to greet you (see video below) and is heated at all times. Plus, when you're done you can look at the remote for all sorts of other "activities" to do. <p>One of the reasons we love luxury hotels so much is juliana 2011-10-20T17:00:02-05:00 Paris: Jay-Z and Beyonce Run the World From Atop Le Meurice http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/4/21/235031/081

Beyonce and Jay-Z are living large at Hotel Le Meurice. The married couple are shacked up in a penthouse suite overlooking the Tuileries Garden for an eye-popping $20,000 a night. Beyonce better get on selling her new single, "Run the World (Girls)."

So what does $20,000 a night buy you? You get the two-story Belle Etoile suite with a private elevator, kitchen, glass-enclosed dining room and large private terrace at the beautiful Paris hotel. Le Meurice is one of Beyonce's faves, and it seems to be the hotel of choice for other hip-hop elite, with such fans as Eminem and Kanye West.]]> Jennifer Kester 2011-04-22T09:02:03-05:00 London: The Dorchester Celebrates 80 Years of Celebrity Meltdowns...With Trees? http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/4/6/181037/9691 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/6193/DorchesterDoor.jpg" class="top"> <p><a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel/local/5"><b>The Dorchester Hotel</b></a>, home to many a celebrity breakdown, is having a birthday, and not just any birthday--an <strong>80th birthday</strong>.

It's not very rock&#146;n&#146;roll but at least it&#146;s eco friendly.
