Luxury on the Boardwalk: Hefner's Custom Monopoly Hotels
Hugh Hefner's custom Monopoly set featured uniquely crafted hotels that reflected his personal empire. The early hotel pieces were miniature replicas of the original Playboy Mansion East in Chicago, capturing the stately elegance of Hefner's first iconic residence. As the brand expanded, these were later replaced with models of the Playboy Hotel in Miami, showcasing the sleek, modern glamour of the Playboy lifestyle in its heyday. These custom pieces added a personal and luxurious flair to the classic board game, transforming it into a playful homage to Hefner’s world.
