DESCRIPTION:
BEDS are on offer for just €6 a night at the world’s first zero-star hotel — based in a converted NUCLEAR BUNKER.
But guests at the no-frills establishment will have to put up with hot water bottles rather than central heating. And they will be given a pair of earplugs to help blot out the racket from the ventilation system. Standard beds at the austere Null Stern (No Star) hotel in Sevelen, near Zurich, Switzerland, are military-style bunks. Eleven pounds extra buys a “luxury” room, with “antique” beds from a condemned hotel. Complimentary slippers are provided for walking across the icy concrete floors — while customers enter a draw to decide who gets the luxury of a hot morning shower. And with no windows, the only view of the outside world is via a row of monitors in reception. The bed-and-no-breakfast hotel began life as an art project by twins Frank and Patrik Riklin.They turned it into a full-time business when interest grew, and plan to welcome their first guests early in the new year. They could convert 11 more bunkers if the first proves a success.
