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

　　下水管？前監獄？巨型木馬？現代人的住宿選擇的變化著實讓人吃驚。

　　1.The Oxford Mal, England

　　英國：瑪拉瑪遜牛津酒店

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

　　大部分的監獄都是人們拼命想要逃離的地方，而不會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。

　　不過這座維多利亞時期的監獄被時尚的瑪拉瑪遜酒店連鎖改建成了一座精品酒店，提供著豪華舒適的住宿環境，這應該是以前的那些犯人做夢也想不到的吧。

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

　　房價：雙人間140英鎊，套間195英鎊，雙層套間250英鎊，商務套房350英鎊，早餐12.95英鎊。

　　2.Jules’ Undersea Lodge, United States

　　美國：朱爾斯海底小屋

　　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。

　　這座小屋原來是一個研究實驗室，目前是世界上惟一一個水下酒店，位于美國佛羅里達州翡翠湖的湖底。想要進入這座水下酒店的唯一路線是潛到水下6米。

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

　　這座小屋可以招待兩對夫婦，小屋配備有淋浴設備、微波爐和冰箱。

　　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種各樣的魚。住在小屋里就像你待在金魚缸里一樣，靜靜地坐著，你可以看到神仙魚、鸚嘴魚、梭魚和鯛魚透過窗戶偷窺你哦。

　　Rates: From US$400 per night

　　房價：起價每晚400美元

　　3.Das Park Hotel, Austria

　　奧地利：下水管旅館

　　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。

　　這些排水管直徑有2米，2.5米長，可以通過一個舷窗看到外面。有一個前門可以關上，還有一個舒適的窩可以蜷縮著躺進去。管道房間里還有床墊、床頭燈、羊毛毯和一個輕便的睡袋。

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

　　這是新奇也是大膽的想法。最好的地方是：你想付多少錢就付多少錢，價格你說了算。

　　Rates: You decide

　　房價：你的地盤你做主

　　4.Hotel Kakslauttanen, Finland

　　芬蘭：愛斯基摩小屋旅館

　　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。

　　再也沒有比近距離沐浴在北極光的照射下更加美好的經歷了。想要欣賞自然這一神奇絢爛的奇觀，住在玻璃屋旅館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。

　　這些小屋旅館坐落在北極圈里，位于芬蘭北部大雪覆蓋的薩利色爾卡深山里。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，也超級別致。不過不好的地方就是沒有隱私啦。
