This is an industry record for a transaction deal according to the Wall Street Journal, the sale price for each room is roughly $1.4 million.  Believe it or not, this is lower than the $570 million sale of the Plaza to the Indian Sahara group in 2012.  That sale was able to achieve roughly $2 million per room.
