Rabbit Hole Hostels

Matteo Thun Designs Eco-Friendly Underground Hotel

Matteo Thun has designed an innovative, eco-friendly underground hotel. It has been dubbed 'Bella Vista' and will be comprised of 11 individual homes, which will be built into a hillside in Italy. All of the 11 units will then utilize green and economical methods of heating, cooling, ventilation and air-conditioning.

Once the eco-friendly underground hotel is up and running, you can be sure there will be a steady line-up of patrons wanting to spend the night. Who wouldn’t want to pretend that they’re bunnies?
