But hotels for orgies are not the only unusual taverns out there, with bookings ready to be made in the following resorts:
- La Villa Hamster
Ever fancied living as a hamster? Well, in the French city of Nantes you can, complete with giant exercise wheel and water dispenser.
- The Dog Bark Inn
Turn man's best friend into man's best night of sleep, as you curl up inside a gigantic beagle beside a main road in rural Idaho.
- The Sala Silvermine Hotel
Winters in Sweden can be pretty bleak, with daylight hours pinched into the middle of the long, cold night. So why not just go have a nap 150m below ground in an abandoned silver mine?
- El Palacio de Sel
Probably best if you remember to pack some moisturiser before heading off to this Bolivian B&B, given that the entire structure is made of salt.
- Seaventures Sea Resort
This abandoned oil rig in Malaysia actually offers the perfect spot for anyone wishing to dive through the stunning Coral Triangle.
