Uniquely designed
hotel rooms that are worth the trip
We find most hotel rooms to be like politicians-
indistinguishable, uninspiring and desperately lacking in
character. Even when they are boutique-a-tized, they can get
boring pretty quickly. That's why we’re excited that some very
cool hotels are going the extra mile. At the Copenhagen
Fox Hotel, 21 artists have ensured each room has a
distinctive style, including a Street Art room and Japanese
anime room. unique hotel in San Paolo is so modern it
must be written in lower case. Rooms have curved wooden floors
like skateboard ramps, light walls hold plasma screens and
there’s even a crimson swimming pool on the roof. The Ripa
Hotel in Rome is built like a giant Lite Brite set with
floor to ceiling glass windows each lit up in a different yet
familiar shade of purple, blue or green.
Think about
how it... How much are you paying for each waking minute you
spend in yet another ubiquitous hotel room? For your hard
earned money don’t you think you deserve a bit more?
