There are scores of artistic and interesting themed hotels in this world and it is impossible to list them all out. Accommodation can be anything from a charter hotel submarine - the most expensive hotel in the world costing $240,000 per night to cave accommodation in the Ozarks. Then there's the Giraffa Manor just out of Nairobi in Kenya where giraffes come in the morning, poke their heads in through the windows, and help themselves to your breakfast.
Most of the major casinos in Las Vegas are themed, but also are some of the other hotels like Tahiti Village - the Polynesian-themed hotel with the lazy river. In Vietnam, there's a hotel that the locals have called the "Crazy House". Here are a few themed hotels that should be one's bucket list.

TreeHotel In Sweden
The TreeHotel in Sweden is one of the most unique and interesting hotels in the world. They are much more than treehouses - they are infinitely more interesting than that. They have seven rooms each in the trees - their UFO Room, the Bird's Nest, the Microcube, the 7th Room, the Dragonfly, the Cabin, the Blue Cone.
It isn't possible to go through all these rooms here but each has been designed by different architects. E.g. the bewildering UFO was purposefully designed to be the most unexpected thing one would find in the Nordic forests. A UFO hovering amongst the trees where one can spend the night, not get abducted or experimented on.
- Beds: One Double and Three Single Beds
- Capacity: Five People (2 Adults, The Three Single Beds Are Small And Better Suited For Children)
