Sporting a grand lobby and luxurious suites, the hotel served for a short period of time as the home of the future king of the Earth Kingdom, Prince Wu.
== History ==
During Prince Wu's stay in Republic City, he resided in one of the luxurious suites at the Republic City Four Elements hotel. One day in 174 AG, after the reopening of the Central City Station, Wu and his bodyguard, Mako, retreated to the hotel for a brief moment so the prince could change before leaving his suite to pamper himself with a spa treatment. As they neared the exit of the hotel, Wu noticed a gathering of people at the doors and assumed they were his fans. He proudly strutted out on the red carpet that was left there for him and greeted his fans. However, the meeting was cut short when Mako ushered him to safety in the waiting Satomobile, escaping a barrage of pies thrown at them by Kuvira supporters.
The day before Wu's coronation, world leaders, such as Desna and Eska, and high-profile citizens, such as Suyin Beifong, checked in to the hotel. Kuvira and some of her army officials also stayed there. With her influence, the army commander had managed to force Prince Wu out of his Presidential Suite and into one of the junior suites, occupying the large suite herself.
In 174 AG, Zhu Li Moon held her victory party at the luxurious ballroom of the Four Elements, where it was announced, in the presence of Republic City's high society, that she had been elected as the United Republic of Nations's new president.
