The most expensive hotel room in the world – that MELTS: Ice Hotel allows guests to design their own suite… for £140,000

Ice Hotel10

It takes two weeks to create, costs £140,000 and lasts for only a few months – but guests who can afford it now have the chance to design their very own suite in Sweden’s Ice Hotel.

Famous for its individually crafted rooms and works of art, which are carved out of ice and snow, the resort is offering the ‘haute couture travel experience’ for stays between December and March, 2015.

Working with the Ice Hotel’s talented designers, guests can create a room that ‘suits their taste and expresses their individual style’ out of natural ice from the river Torne.

Each suite will be made exclusively for the client but after departure, it will be left to return to the river as the springtime sun returns.

Once it is gone, clients will be given a bottle containing some of the meltwater, along with the sketches and blueprints for the design, and photographs of the suite.

The cost for the experience is SEK 1,485,000 (£140,000), making it one of the most expensive hotel rooms in the world.

Peru authorities crackdown on naked photos and streaking at Machu Picchu

Մաչու Պիկչո

Tourists getting naked at one of Peru’s most iconic cultural sites are facing a crackdown by authorities.

The move to step up surveillance at Machu Picchu comes after videos and photos were posted online of foreigners stripping off and streaking across the Incan ruins, prompting a response from the Ministry of Culture.

They were briefly held in custody and forced to delete naked photographs from their digital camera – but not before it had gone viral on Peruvian social media after it was ‘irresponsibly published to the Internet,’ the police statement says.
Last month, a video was posted to YouTube showing a naked couple streaking across Machu Picchu, considered to be a sacred holy site, as a park guard gave chase.

The couple can be seen running through the grass, holding their clothes in their hands, jumping over the ancient stone walls.

 

The incident was filmed by another tourist.
