Hotel Kakslauttanen - Lapland
The Hotel Kakslauttanen is an amazing resort among the stunning Lappish scenery, where you can observe the northern lights, meet Santa and enjoy a wide range of winter sports.

Just dont forget your woolly socks!
Castle Cottage B&B and treehouse West Sussex, UK

The Old Railway Station West Sussex, UK
Here you can stay in a converted Pullman train carriage. The perfect accommodation choice for train enthusiasts.
Magic Mountain Hotel Huilo Huilo Reserve, Chile
This unusual pyramid shaped hotel in the middle of a stunning Chilean nature reserve has a waterfall cascading down the side of it. Add to that quirky curved wooden rooms and hot tubs carved into tree trunks and you have one of the most breathtaking hotels in the world.
The Lighthouse Conwy, Wales
This beautiful period accommodation in Llandudno offers a traditional olde worlde feel and some spectacular sea views from the vast lighthouse windows.
The Capsule Hotel Hague
These bright orange 70s survival pods have been converted to offer small but perfectly formed accommodation. An interesting, if not the most luxurious, accommodation choice. Who needs five star luxury anyway?
The House in the Clouds Suffolk, UK
This converted water tower now offers quirky and comfortable accommodation for up to twelve people. Boasting a games room with spectacular views on the fifth floor, this is a great place for a fun, family get-together.
Le Carre Rouge France
This accommodation for six is a complete oddity as a red cube which completely clashes with the surrounding French countryside. The red cube house has no electricity or running water, but hey, youd have to be completely bonkers to stay there so I guess its of no consequence.
Cley Windmill Norfolk
This windmill has been beautiful converted into a quirky hotel with traditional furnishings. If youre feeling like you want to show off, why not hire out the entire windmill, which sleeps up to 20, for a house party?
Atelier sul Mare Sicily
This hotel on the isle of Sicily boasts rooms designed by artists to be works of art within themselves. An interesting concept, and one that is sure to give you more to talk about after your holiday than the weather.
All of the above hotels have a special quality that sets them apart, but if you simply want to head somewhere where the pillows are soft and the bath tub is deep then you should head to www.d3als.co.uk to find the best hotel deals available.
