    As it turns out I stayed at the Goreme Cave Suite Hotel in Capadocia Turkey, It was the coolest hotel room I ever stayed in, a thousand years earlier the room was a storage room for food and grains, now it is a fabulous hotel with Jaccuzzi tubs, candles lining the floor when you walk in the room, an interesting Breakfast spread, and great local wines right in the minibar!

    Interesting…but don’t think I will be staying in a large cement tube anytime soon. WEIRD.

    Trent, I watched the ABC’s game series, “I Survived a Japanese Game Show” and it’s the first time I knew there’s a kind of “Capsule hotel” available on at Japan! Honestly, it looks like more than a coffin than a bedroom…!

    Do these places come plumbed in with shower, loo and wash basin? How do they get the power in you can see a table lamp though the door so they must have power…

    Mind you if you are a gent no big problem if you get caught short in the night :-) Just aim out of the door…….

    Thanks Blizzard,
    I was looking for an adventurous trip and hard to select one, I think rustic forest hut would be the right option for me and it would really an exciting destination.

    One of our B & B’s often makes this list but these are in a class of their own however Beagle Girl should appreciate this one if she does not already know about it: http://www.dogbarkparkinn.com/ It’s a great place!

    That is just bizzare, it would be like sleeping in a drain pipe!!! That is the picture of Das Park Hotel, Ottensheim. I pass these kinds of pipes every day at the moment on my way to work, from now on I will be able to smile every time I am stuck in the traffic because of the pipe replacement going on.

    Interesting concept I wonder if we will start to see more of these in Europe after the success of the Japanese version of sleeping cubicles in urban hotels?

    Ok not quite but definitely a variation on the theme? Some of the aparthotels I have seen them putting up in London these last few years have been constructed from the old steel shipping containers. You know the ones that go on the back of huge articulated trucks.

    Easy enough and a novel idea when its simply bolt together and decorate.

    This is great! I love it!

    That barrell sure does not look like a comfortable place to stay. I can’t even see if theres a mattress in it. What would you do in the winter.

  11. Michael Says:

    Cement tubes do not look very appealing and does look downright uncomfortable. How about heat in the winter.

  12. Ara Says:

    Wow! Its cool! But I thinks its dangerous to stay there because its possible that it would roll.

  13. Joe Griffith Says:

    WOW I had no ideal such places existed. I need to take a vacation
