If you’re still shopping around for hotels for the summer ahead, you should check some of these bizarre places out…
“Room with a view” could take on a whole different meaning in one of these five spots.
Take us to the Magic Mountain please…
1. Capsule Hotel, Japan
Sleep in a capsule, alongside hundreds of other guests. It has a distinct “dog pound” feel to the place but, hey, you can’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it, right?

2. Magic Mountain Hotel, Chile
Wow. Our pick of the spots, this hotel is built into the side of a mountain, with water gushing down the sides of it. No balcony options.

3. Poseidon Underwater Resort, Fiji
You’d really have to trust the walls in this place, but think of the peaceful sleep you’d have.

4. Sewage Pipe Hotel, Austria
We don’t know about this for a hotel, but how has someone not come up with this genius idea for a music festival? Absolutely no hope of that tent collapsing…

5. Ice Hotel, Sweden
Ice, ice baby… well, it’d be the soundtrack to the holiday anyway. Wrap up warm, it’ll be refreshing to say the least!
