Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)"Extreme Hotels" is a great coffee table book to look at and ponder future travel destinations. The book is translated into multiple languages (including English), so the amount of text contained in the book is actually quite small. The book has excellent photographs of some of the most amazing hotels in the world ranging from ultra-luxurious hotels on stilts above the ocean in the Maldives, to overnight accommodations inside a sewer pipe in a park in Austria.
For my money the most interesting group of hotels by country is in the Netherlands: I particularly liked the Euromast tower suites in Rotterdam and the Harbor Crane Bed and Breakfast which looks out over the Waddenzee (a coastal mud flat is rich in wildlife) and a harbor. For sleekness, nothing beats the Design Hotel in Madrid, while the Library Hotel in New York caters to those who love books, and has rooms arranged by the Dewey decimal system.
The oddest collective of hotels seems to reside in New Zealand, where at Waitomo World Unique Motels you can stay in a Vietnam-era military cargo plane, a World War Two patrol boat, a train, or a hobbit house.
This book is short on commentary, but more than makes up for it on the virtues of its photographs. Full contact information is listed for each of the hotels, which is a good thing: I've already made plans to visit two of these destinations. If you want a glossy, beautiful book of unusual hotels, this book is for you.
