Why sleep indoors when you can stargaze from beneath the sheets? If you’re a true outdoorsman then it is about time to let your wild side out by making a reservation in the next five suites. That’s because they place their guests in the heart of nature; even if means living in a bubble or sleeping in a barrel. Although they may seem quite strange to the straight-laced traveler, they open their doors to luxury that only nature can provide.
NYC: AKA Central Park
Are you looking to enjoy New York City’s pristine skyline while snuggling in bed? Well, AKA Central Park has the perfect solution to appease your accommodation needs, although you will need to dig deep in your pockets to enjoy the hotel’s penthouse suites.
Located on the 17th floor, these luxurious apartment-style guestrooms come complete with flat screen televisions, modern kitchen amenities, cozy furniture and lavish one and a half bathrooms to make every guest feel right at home. But when the weather permits, the suites’ 1,500 square-foot winding terraces transform into al fresco oases with the placement of a bed to provide an elevated experience under the city’s twinkling lights.
France: Bubble Tree Hotel
Living in a bubble is not necessarily a bad thing, especially if you are an avid lover of nature. Fortunately the Bubble Tree Hotel has designed guestrooms that combine France’s natural beauty and eco-efficiency to create a one-of-a-kind outdoor adventure.
Constructed out of recycled material, its bubble houses allow guests to awaken anew amid the calls of the wild without enduring the effects of unbearable weather or pesky bugs. The Bubble Tree Hotel also aims to maintain the hospitality of a conventional hotel room with amenities like electricity, comfy beds and sitting areas. There’s no need to exert all your energy into building a tent when your suite can simply inflate like a balloon.
Austria: Das Parkhotel
When guests are looking for an unusual night under the stars, one of the first places that come to mind in Austria is Das Parkhotel. That’s because its rooms are constructed out of huge barrel-style tubes called sleep-pipes.
Even if you are a bit skeptical about Das Parkhotel’s eccentric accommodations, there is no need to worry because the hotel’s guestrooms are fully furnished with spacious Eurofoam beds, storage areas, lights, as well as an outlet just in case you don’t want to be completely disconnected from the world.
Italy: L’Albereta
Thinking of wishing upon a star before falling into a deep slumber? Then reserving the Cabriolet suite at the L’Albereta will make your dreams come true.
By simply pushing a button, the suite’s roof retracts and causes the outdoors to float inward for a night of stargazing or arising with the early morning sun. Along with this special feature, the suite’s balcony puts guests in the heart of Lombardy’s lush vineyards and sparkling Lake Iseo.
Argentina: Entre Cielos
Another hotel that places its visitors in the grasps of natural splendor is the Entre Cielus, which offers its “Limited Edition” option, which is a contemporary loft perched on stilts which hovers over Mendoza’s wineries.
Inside of the cabin, guests will be delighted to find a work station as well as modern amenities such as a minibar, telephone, iPod dock station and coffee machine. However, you might be more inclined to find bliss in Australia’s great outdoors since you’ll be awakening to the delicious fragrances of ripe grapes and breathtaking panoramas of the Andes.
