Many of those i’d be far too frightened in to fall asleep, such as the underwater, and airplane hotel. The sand and ice hotels would both be horrible uncomfortable. The one in Japan is genious, I remember hearing about them from my friend’s father and thinking that they seemed rather efficient. The rest seem just, interesting.

I’ve seen a few of these before, but good collection. The underwater hotel in Fiji looks especially nice, but I’d also like to stay in the floating hotel…

For some reason whenever i see creative buildings, I always ask myself if they would be good or suitable for say a zombie attack/end of the world doomsday/government take over type of deal…
