 hotel kakslauttanen, finland

this finnish resort is situated not far from north pole. the snow igloo here are made with futuristic glass that wont frost even the temperature outside is  minus 30 degree celcius. and the interesting part is, at night, we can watch the aurora borealis from the comfort of your zip bed. the auroras phenomenon turns the night sky into beautiful dazzling green, red and blue sky (only happen from late august to april).

palacio de sal, bolivia

palacio de sal the spanish name for "palace of salt". the idea of building a hotel using blocks of salt came from the place itself. salar de uyuni. the biggest and largest salt flat in the world. from the walls, ceilings, furnitures, to floor and everything was made out of salt. the first hotel was built in 1993 - 1995. but the problem is, the had only 12double rooms, a common bathroom and no shower. as the hotel was built in the center of a desert, they produced sanitary problem. and most waste had to be collected manually. and a mismanagement caused serious environment pollution was the reason why they had to dismantle the hotel in 2002. around 2007 a new salt hotel was built under the same name, palacio de sal. the new hotel is a better place now and the sanitary problem is no longer a bother. plus they now had a dry sauna, a steam room and a saltwater pool. and the new regulation is that "do not lick these walls" as they wanted to prevent the degradation of the walls. haha.. enjoy the pictures.

ice hotel quebec, canada

its name has already represent what the hotel is made of. ice. everything was made of of ice. walls, roof, furniture, bed, window, tables and chair, even the glasses for drinking there are all made of ice. the chill thrill that would be an unforgeable experience if we could go and check-into the hotel for a few days or more. hm.. enough wiith the talk and  see for yourself. for more info, u guys can always google for this place. enjoy the pictures.

hotel jumbo stay, stockholm

the jumbo stay is a retired boieng 747 that use to have 450 seats and have been replace into 27 rooms. the only jet plane that surely give enough legrooms for the passengers. plus u can move the controls and push as many button as u wish and don't even have to worry about crashing. because this baby ain't going to fly anyway. haha.. have a look at these pictures.

the most expensive suite, the cockpit 
place to enjoy your meals



hotel utter inn, sweden

the view from the outside won't be so interesting at a first glance. but u know what, surely they can fool us from the look of that place from the ground level. believe me or not, that red cheery pint-size house in middle of the lake is only the entrance. under the lake.. that's a different story. that's why we can't judge a book by its cover. :) the view from inside of the hotel is breathtaking. naturally beautiful. enjoying your stay there as if u are living inside a giant aquarium with lots of fish. enjoying the scenery while eating would be nice too. :)
here's some of the pictures.

the stupid looking entrance

the suffocating bedroom
