I was glued to the TV last weekend.
Nat Geo Adventure was showing Weird and Wonderful Hotels and it was...wow!
I never knew some of these places exist, or even capable of existence
- kudos to the designers and architects!
I got really excited to find out what other beyond imagination designs are there, and started searching on the web! Here are some to get fellow travel-enthusiasts excited too...
~ Coffin-sized homes - Not for the claustrophobic ones!~
Capsule hotels - in several parts of Japan

~ Eco... Eco..!~
Drain Pipe Hotel - Austria
http://www.dasparkhotel.net/
Interesting concept to make use of 2m x 2.5m cement tubes, definitely environmental friendly!
~ Hotel of Doom~

Ryugyong Hotel - North Korea

As the title suggests. Not a place I would tick on my next travel.
The architecture is interesting though, thin.
So thin... hmm.. it does look a little to me like Paper Thosai! (no pun intended!)

The Dog Bark Park Inn, Idaho, USA
http://www.dogbarkparkinn.com/
Slapped right in the middle of a park, this bed & breakfast guesthouse was built into the World's Biggest Beagle. Some of the dog's decorative furnishings are carvings by Dog Bark Park chainsaw artists Dennis & Frances. Inside and up another level to the head of the dog is a loft room with additional sleeping space plus a cozy alcove in the muzzle.
~ The Seclusion and Chill ~
Ice Hotel – Sweden
The hotel is built from scratch every year.
Be assured that everything is new!

One of my dream holiday! *hint*
I'm not sure if these hotels truly exist... yet.

The three men are Fu Lu Shou - which means Good Fortune, Prosperity, and Longevity.
This hotel is built in early 2000 and it has 10 storeys at a height of 41.6m.
Not much info about this wacky looking hotel as the official website @ http://www.tianzigarden.com is no longer working.

Poseidon Undersea Resort – Fiji
