This falls in the weird news category but it is a first that I’ve seen here.  Follow Sam Byford on his stay there.

I’ve never been to Panama, but apparently its rainy season runs from May to December. If you’re a PC gamer that happens to be planning a trip there sometime later this year, then, does Alienware ever have the accommodation for you.

Room 2425 at the Hilton Panama has a nice view of the beaches that you won’t be spending any time on, alongside a 65-inch 4K OLED TV, an Alienware PC with a Core i7-7800 and a GTX 1080Ti, Xbox One Elite controllers, an Oculus Rift, an Alienware laptop hooked up to a 34-inch ultra wide monitor, a racing chair, interactive lighting, and some weird beanbag thing with an Alienware logo on it. And two beds.

“Ensuring an innovative and differentiating service has been our commitment since our opening in Panama and this initiative shows how important it is for us to contribute to improving more and more the options [to] stay in Panama, directly impacting on the tourist offer offered by the country for locals and foreigners,” Andres Korngold, Hilton Panama’s director of business development, told Homecrux.

The room opened yesterday and costs $349 a night, which sounds like a bargain given the current crypto-induced jacking up of GPU prices worldwide.
