List of tallest hotels explained

This is a list of the tallest buildings in the world that are wholly used as hotels. Some tall buildings are multi-use and have a hotel occupying the building's uppermost floors; such hotels are known as the highest hotels in the world. The world's highest hotel is the Rosewood Guangzhou located on the top floors of the 111-story Guangzhou CTF Finance Centre in China, soaring to 530 meters at its highest point.[1] [2]

Completed or topped out

This list ranks both completed as well as topped out hotel–only buildings that stand at least 2000NaN0 tall, based on standard height measurement. Skyscrapers with multiple functions –e.g., hotel and residential– are not included in this list.
