Utter (or Otter) Inn, Sweden

Posted by Jackie Hewett on Sat 16th August 2008 at 01:21 AM, Filed in EuropeUnusual Hotels

Whilst there are many underwater concept hotels that may or may not come to fruition here is one (albeit one room only) that actually exists.

It is a concept by the artist Mikael Genberg and consists of a floating red wooden room, beneath which is suspended a ‘human aquarium’ (where the bed is situated).  The bedroom floats three meters below the surface of Lake Malaren in Sweden.  Guests are taken by inflatable boat 1km into the middle of the lake where the room is situated, and left alone, unless they have ordered the ‘delux’ stay whereby they will get a later visit bringing their supper.

Whilst the room does have a heater and is closed during the winter months I am sure it could prove a little chilly sometimes so take plenty of layers…..oh & book well ahead!
