HotelChatter || Art Hotels: Where No Wall Is White

If staying in hotels where artists have gone wild in the design process is your thing, then Budget Travel has just published the ideal art hotel round-up for you. Their list features hotels across three continents that have just one thing in common: every room is a grand work of art where you should expect the unexpected.

In the Netherlands, for example, the St Christopher's at the Winston, has now retreated from its previously far, far out art that included animal corpses to room designs with highly energetic walls and paintings (pictured above)--interesting to look at, but we're not sure if we could get any sleep.

Some of the muralled rooms in Singapore's New Majestic are more our scene, especially the aquarium room with soothing blue walls and a (admittedly scary-looking) pink fish.

In Paris, the Hotel Amour is a place we've already mentioned, but we want to emphasize that Room 401 is the room with two hundred disco balls hanging from the ceiling. And in Berlin, the Arte Luise Kunsthotel now has 50 individually decorated rooms, and our choice is the Mammel's Dream room.

It's got an oversized bed, designed so that adult guests can recapture that childhood feeling of tucking up cosily in a big bed. We could sleep there a lot better than in the room in this picture at the Winston.
