Sweden Mine Hotel: No TV, Toilet or WiFi? It's One Of The Most Popular Hotels in the World [VIDEO]
Sweden might just have the most intimate and odd hotel room for you and your sweetheart's getaway. The old mineshaft was turned into a hotel room in 2006, where overnight guests can literally get away from it all. With no mobile reception, WiFi, television access or toilets, the cozy hotel stay has peculiarly proven to be many people's first choice.
The Silver Mine Suite has a bed, table, chair, candles and that's all. Located in a deep, deep, deep abandoned mine just an hour's drive from Stockholm, guests appreciate the simplicity of this hotel room. In this busy world where technology has made it impossible to have even a second to ourselves, this odd little mine hotel strips you of any disruptions. The only downside might be not having a restroom, but you might be surprised at what relaxation can even do for your bladder.
Dubbed "The World's Deepest Hotel," the hotel suite will run you about $650 a night. A five-minute elevator ride takes guest about 500 feet through an old mine shaft and into the room, reports the Associated Press. Thousands of people around the world book the suite for it's "novelty" and "solitude." Couples are the Silver Mine's most popular guests, even having engagement proposals taking place in the suite very often.
The hotel is open all year around but sorry -- it's booked for this Valentine's Day already. Although it might not be the best stay for claustrophobia sufferers, it is perfect for those who need a quiet break from life's routines. It's almost a sanctuary of relaxation and connecting with nature.
Hey, for those of you thrill seekers and world explorers, this might just be the perfect hotel room for you. If you aren't creeped out by being 500 feet underground in an old mine only illuminated by candles, book your date! The elevator to get to the suite seems to be the only source of technology. Are you ready for the Silver Mine Suite?
