Hotels where the collection is not decoration. Converted warehouses, frescoed villas and single-artist hangs, written up as buildings you can sleep inside.
Open the category →Four kinds of hotel, indexed and written out in full
bigfootballsilk keeps a short, deliberate list. Art hotels, capsule hotels, casino hotels and ice hotels — sixteen properties in all, each described in prose, each chosen because the building itself is worth explaining.
The index
The categories
Where to start
Every category holds four entries. There is no ranking inside them and no ordering by price — the sequence is editorial.
Capsule Hotels
Capsule Hotels
4 hotels indexed
The compact-stay format at its most considered — moulded pods, cabin-height berths and bath floors, from the chains that defined the category.
Open the category →Casino Hotels
Casino Hotels
4 hotels indexed
Four casino hotels, described as hotels first: where they stand, what the rooms look onto, and what else is on the property besides the gaming floor.
Open the category →Ice Hotels
Ice Hotels
4 hotels indexed
Buildings that exist for one season. Rebuilt annually from river ice and snow, then allowed to melt — four of the places that keep doing it.
Open the category →Nothing here is a booking page, and no entry has been paid for.
Every description is written from general, checkable characteristics of the property.
No star ratings, no guest reviews, no availability — if you want to stay somewhere, go to the hotel directly.
