15 (More) Of The Coolest Hotel Suites In The World

There are two reasons that you would want to visit one of the most amazing hotel suites in the world. The first is that you want to be able to tell everyone you know that you stayed in one of the coolest hotel suites on the planet. The second is because the luxury of these places is worth the price tag that's attached. Both of these reasons for seeking out best-of-breed hotels can be satisfied in one fell swoop by booking into any of the following rather impressive rooms. But there's something that you should know first; you could get really used to living like this and you might not want to come home!

Hotel Everland: If you're the kind of person who wants something just because very few other people ever get to have it, you'd be interested in the experience of an overnight stay at the Hotel Everland. This unique hotel room is actually an art installation which moves from venue to venue; through the end of 2008 it is located at the Palais de Tokyo art gallery in Paris. The hotel consists of only a single room and you only get to stay in it for one night. Amenities to supplement the exclusiveness of the experience include a no-charge, fully-stocked mini-bar, access to an extensive record collection, free breakfast arriving on your doorstep and the chance to dry yourself off with golden-threaded towels. The price you'll pay for the night is approximately 400 Euros.

Eugenia Hotel, Bangkok

Eugenia Hotel, Bangkok

Eugenia Hotel: The Eugenia is an interesting little gem in the heart of downtown Bangkok. Situated inside a 19th Century colonial-style home, it consists of only twelve different suites which are each outfitted with vintage antique decor. From the hand-beaten copper tubs to the vintage light switches, each piece in every room is a real relic from the past. Although it's steeped in history, guests are treated to a modern experience of fine luxury which starts in their rooms and extends out to the back porch where they can sip tea by the poolside and pretend that they live in quieter times. The only drawback is the fact that there's no elevator in this old hotel. On the plus side, it's affordable at around 130 Euros per night.

The 'I'm Boarding on a Paper Boat' suite is a blue-and-black themed room based on the concepts of water and space. The 'Trinacria' suite is a geometrically designed room that's mostly dark but has flashes of light creating patterns throughout the room wile the 'Energia' room casts a strange red hue throughout the suite. Each space is different and each is a work of art.
