Inside the abandoned hotel resort that was once so luxurious it had a ‘champagne swimming pool and unlimited lobster’
HALUDOVO Palace Hotel was once a luxury resort in Croatia, boasting limitless champagne, tax-free gambling and sexy female staff.
However, just one year after opening, it went bankrupt - before being abandoned years later due to lack of funding and a civil war.
The hotel opened on the island of Krk in 1972, when Croatia was still part of Yugoslavia.
Penthouse magazine founder Bob Guccione invested $45m (£34m) into the resort, adding the Penthouse Adriatic Club Casino.
He had hoped to inspire relations between the US and Yugoslavia by encouraging Americans to visit the island.
It was perfectly timed following the opening of Rijeka airport in 1971, which was just 15 minutes away from the resort.
One of the most famous people to have stayed at the hotel was Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.
Staff at the hotel were reportedly called Penthouse "Pets"; and wore French maid uniforms while they kept the champagne flowing.
