It took seven days and 1,000 tons of sand for sculptors to create this oddity on the beaches of Dorset, England. The hotel features both twin and double bedrooms, which are booked on a first-come, first-served basis.

For a whopping $16 a night, visitors can stargaze from their beds. The only catch? No washroom facilities in the rooms or, well, anywhere.

In Berlin, Germany, the Propeller Island City Lodge is a go-to place for travelers who enjoy whimsical decor. The 28 rooms are more like living art pieces — see this take on a prison cell — and range from $95 to $260 a night.

For any traveler who misses a flight, has an unexpected layover, or just needs a place to escape the airport madness, a miniature hotel called the Yotel awaits weary guests at London's Heathrow airport. Similar to the Japanese-style tube hotels, the tiny cabin rooms can be shared with strangers or rented as single-room pods. All rooms feature a flat-screen TV and wireless Internet.

Simon Woodroffe, founder of the Yotel, shows off the thumb-print room key to one of his group guest rooms. The prices range anywhere form $50 to $80 per 4 hours booked.
