A sewer pipe, a former prison, and a huge wooden horse, accommodation these days is as surprising as it is varied。

　　下水管？前监狱？巨型木马？现代人的住宿选择的变化着实让人吃惊。

1.牛津监狱旅馆

　　1.The Oxford Mal, England

　　英国：玛拉玛逊牛津酒店

　　Most prisons are the kind of place you’d be desperate to escape from, not somewhere you’d possibly conceive of escaping to。

　　大部分的监狱都是人们拼命想要逃离的地方，而不会是你想要逃去的好地方。

　　But this former Oxford prison has been converted into a boutique hotel by the fashionable Malmaison chain and offers the kind of luxurious living that former convicts could only have dreamed of。

　　不过这座维多利亚时期的监狱被时尚的玛拉玛逊酒店连锁改建成了一座精品酒店，提供着豪华舒适的住宿环境，这应该是以前的那些犯人做梦也想不到的吧。

　　Rates: Double room £140 (US$233)， suite from £195, duplex suite from £250, executive suite £350. Breakfast £12.95.

　　房价：双人间140英镑，套间195英镑，双层套间250英镑，商务套房350英镑，早餐12.95英镑。

2.水下小屋

　　2.Jules’ Undersea Lodge, United States

　　美国：朱尔斯海底小屋

　　Originally a research laboratory, the world’s only underwater hotel sits at the bottom of the Emerald Lagoon in Florida, and can only be reached by scuba diving down six meters。

　　这座小屋原来是一个研究实验室，目前是世界上惟一一个水下酒店，位于美国佛罗里达州翡翠湖的湖底。想要进入这座水下酒店的唯一路线是潜到水下6米。

　　The lodge can accommodate two couples and is kitted out with showers, a microwave and a fridge。

　　这座小屋可以招待两对夫妇，小屋配备有淋浴设备、微波炉和冰箱。

　　The real attraction are the fish; the lodge is like a goldfish bowl in reverse, where you sit and watch angelfish, parrotfish, barracuda and snappers peering in at you through the window。

　　真正吸引眼球的地方是各种各样的鱼。住在小屋里就像你待在金鱼缸里一样，静静地坐着，你可以看到神仙鱼、鹦嘴鱼、梭鱼和鲷鱼透过窗户偷窥你哦。

　　Rates: From US$400 per night

　　房价：起价每晚400美元

3.下水道旅馆

　　3.Das Park Hotel, Austria

　　奥地利：下水管旅馆

　　Stay overnight in a concrete sewer pipe on the banks of the River Danube。

　　在多瑙河河畔的混凝土下水管里住一夜吧！

　　The drainpipes are two meters in diameter and two and a half meters long, with a porthole to look out of, a front door to close and a cozy nest to snuggle into, which includes a low-slung futon, bedside lamp, woolly blanket and light sleeping bag。

　　这些排水管直径有2米，2.5米长，可以通过一个舷窗看到外面。有一个前门可以关上，还有一个舒适的窝可以蜷缩着躺进去。管道房间里还有床垫、床头灯、羊毛毯和一个轻便的睡袋。

　　It’s novel, it’s bold, and the best part is that you pay as much, or as little, as you want。

　　这是新奇也是大胆的想法。最好的地方是：你想付多少钱就付多少钱，价格你说了算。

　　Rates: You decide

　　房价：你的地盘你做主

4.小屋旅馆

　　4.Hotel Kakslauttanen, Finland

　　芬兰：爱斯基摩小屋旅馆

　　There is no more sublime experience than being suffused by the Northern Lights. To do so in a glass igloo must surely be one of the more novel and cosy ways of admiring one of nature’s most stunning phenomena。

　　再也没有比近距离沐浴在北极光的照射下更加美好的经历了。想要欣赏自然这一神奇绚烂的奇观，住在玻璃屋旅馆里肯定是更新奇安逸的方式。

　　Situated within the Arctic Circle, deep in the snowbound Saariselka area of northern Finland, the cabins are built from ice or glass; both are surprisingly warm and utterly chic, but somewhat lacking in privacy。

　　这些小屋旅馆坐落在北极圈里，位于芬兰北部大雪覆盖的萨利色尔卡深山里。小屋用冰或玻璃建造而成，但是很神奇的地方是，小屋里很暖和，也超级别致。不过不好的地方就是没有隐私啦。

　　Rates: From €300 (US$444)

　　房价：起价300欧元

5.阿特旅馆

　　5.Utter Inn, Sweden

　　瑞典：阿特旅馆

　　Created by a Swedish artist, the Utter Inn floats on Lake Malaren, an hour west of Stockholm and looks like a small shed perched atop a diving platform。

　　漂浮在梅拉伦湖上的阿特旅馆是瑞典艺术家的作品，这个旅馆位于瑞典首都斯德哥尔摩市西边，到首都需要一个小时。旅馆看起来就像是栖息在跳台上的小屋。

　　The red hut contains a bathroom and a hatch in the floor. Open the hatch and descend a metal ladder to find your bedroom -- in a watertight chamber suspended in the water beneath the hut。

　　这个外观红色的小屋里面有浴室还有船舱口。打开舱口顺着梯子下去可以找到卧室。卧室的设计很独特，位于小屋下方浮在水中的防水密室里。

　　Rates: From US$333 per night

　　房价：起价333欧元
