Cubicle Dreamin': I Want the Chicken Curry Room
Cubicle Dreamin' is a feature in which we ask the hotel mavens to take some time out of their busy work day, surf the Internet, and tell us what hotel they wish they could beam themselves to right that very second--all on the slave driving companies dime, of course. Oh, like these people aren't surfing aimlessly anyway--at least now their purposeless clicking will be cobbled together into useful hotel stories--we hope. Have a destination hotel you are just dying to leave your cube for? Send the story our way.
In this episode, Hotel Maven AmandaK let's us know where she would go for an unusual hotel experience. Enjoy.
Sometimes I like to dream of life in the lap of luxury, but other times what I really want is a totally creative inspiration hit. That's why the Propeller Island City Lodge in funky Berlin appeals to me. It only has around 30 rooms but each of them is a weird work of art ... so I guess I'll need at least 30 nights there to really check it out properly.
Or maybe a few less. Some of the rooms don't appeal to me, but might to you: There's a coffin room (it's possible to sleep with the lids closed); an upside-down room, where all the furniture's nailed to the ceiling and you sleep in a bed/box nailed to the ceiling; and a prison cell, although everyone describes it as being very comfortable.
But the rooms I'd really like to book into include the diamond-shaped mirror room (bring a partner for kaleidoscopic fun), the chicken curry room (named for the color scheme, and with a bed to be found in the floor under a garage door) or the castle room, where each piece of furniture is a small house, your bed's the castle and you sleep up high, king of the village! While some of these rooms might induce strange dreams, I'm happy to take the risk.
