Whimsical Communal Hotels

This Hotel Offers a Child-Like Vacation Stay for Adults

Ordinarily, the hotel concept has a row of rooms that resemble each other and deliver similar experiences. This concept has communal spaces that could have you sleeping in a train or behind a secret bookcase. Designed by Bruno Bont and Tijmen Receveur, the duo provide extravagant decor that features a visually stunning design.

The communal hotel features 23 different rooms that vary based on their rate, some are shared, while some rooms are more secluded to give guests a little more privacy.
