This is the first of a new section on Travel Rants, of Unusual Hotels, and I think this gets my vote for weirdest hotel in Europe – everyone goes on about the Ice hotel in Sweden (yes, I’m sure it’s Sweden and not Iceland) but the Park Hotel, located in Linz, Austria, consists of re-designed, durable standardized sewer pipes.

The hotel “rooms” are supposedly full of home comforts including double bed, light, hut sleeping bags, and the hotel complex features toilets, showers, mini bar, cafeteria etc. Your hotel “room” is secured by a security key code, to ensure that all of your luggage is safe whilst you visit the local attractions.

Apparently, you reserve your room, and pay as you wish, and if you want additional services, like electricity, shower etc, then you “pay as you go” which is quite a novel idea. The hotel is open between May and October so if you fancy spending the night, somewhere unusual, and quirky then visit the Das Park Hotel.
