Days back when the news of Jail turning into a Hotel was unusual and invited eyeballs, today the very mention of Hotel Everland, one-room hotel has overshadowed its significance. Offering picturesque views, the hotel is parked on the roof of the Palais de Tokyo in Paris from November 2007-December 2008. This inventive creation is the result of the witty efforts delivered by Swiss artist-duo Sabina Lang and Daniel Baumann. The hotel is equipped with a single-room along with a king-size bed with attached bathroom and lounge.

To your much-amaze, the per night charges of the hotel are 333 euros ($475) during the week, 444 euros ($634) at weekends. But to compensate the luxury deal or rather a lame excuse to yourself, you can always steal the golden embroidered bath towels as a memento.

This acts as more of an installed masterpiece offering 1970s-style glamour, artistic cachet and an elegant scenic beauty of the Eiffel Tower. This multi-functional edifice works both as a museum exhibit and also as a room offering you a chivalrous night-stay.

Historical Background:

Developed for the Swiss National Exhibition Expo.02, Hotel Everland was first located on the lake of Yverdon, followed by the mobile pavilion factory roof at L/B’s studio. After that from June 2006 till August 2007 Hotel Everland was placed on the roof of the Museum of Contemporary Art Leipzig, Germany. During the daytime, the room is a medium to rejoice and entertaining medium for the museum visitors.

Beacon Hill vicinity located in Boston is a domicile to countless hotels worth flaunting. Amongst the myriad of hotels, The Liberty Hotel is a $150 million luxury palace that adds an extra amount of honor to it as long back the Charles Street Jail instead of present Hotel.

The 16-story tower now features 280 guest rooms, three restaurants, including Scampo, governed by locally-popular chef Lydia Shire, recognized for her inspiring 2001 overhaul of Boston epicurean bastion Locke-Ober.

The décor of the hotel reflects the mirror-image of the city, deep-rooted in history, but yet breathing in contemporary ambience. The flat stonework at the lobby is in contrast to the rich stilted paneling and American colonial prints. Each bedroom is polished with soft, gentle tenor, like rose and taupe.

Every corner of the hotel is enchanting and the history seems to reside within the hotel as the remnants of jail attics are still alive inside the hotel lobby bar and splendid, huge windows.
