V-Houses (Jungle Hotel), Mexico
Built in 2007 in Yelapa, Mexico and designed by Heinz Legler. There are no windows and the roof is corrugated iron. I'd love to stay here on a rainy night.
Hôtel de Glace (Ice Hotel), Canada
 |
| Note: I have lingering doubts. |
The Ice Hotel opened in 2001 in Montmorency Park, Québec. Suites at this chilly hotel never go below -5°C, even with outside tempatures of -30°C. Want to give it a try? You'll have to wait until next January, the hotel just closed for the year this week.
Survival Pod Hotel, Netherlands
Originally used as escape pods on oil rigs in the 70's, these bright orange capsules are available to stay in, and accommodate up to three people.
