Unusual Hotels of the World

unusual hotels

As I mentioned before, I would probably cover a few of the websites mentioned in the top “ 50 Travel Sites You’ve Probably Never Heard Of.” Unusual Hotels of the World is one of those websites. In addition to just sharing strange hotels with you, the website gives you contact/reservation information, and guest ratings and feedback.

There is a “wow” rating system for all the hotels on the site. The rating starts at the bottom with “different”, a little farther up you’ll find “wacky”, and the top rating is a “wow.” Givcen the content on the site I couldn’t think of a better rating system. You can find anything from underwater hotels to castles, but don’t take my word for it.

Check out the selection:

  • Underwater/Reefside
  • Crazy Décor
  • Rainforest/Jungle
  • Lighthouses
  • Deserts
  • Underground/Caves
  • Castles/Palace
  • Igloo/Ice
  • Island
  • Kids
  • Huts/Tents
  • Fantasy
  • Treehouses
  • Views
  • Prision
  • Eco Resorts
  • Trains/Planes

If that isn’t the most interesting list of accommodations you have ever seen, then I need to talk to your travel agent. I spent a while browsing through the site and found a few I thought were really cool.

Elkep Evi, Mammut Snow Hotel, & Lighthouse – Harlingen
