Austria Linz’s Sewer Pipe Das Park Hotel
Would you pay to sleep in a sewer pipe? Maybe not. What if it has the following features:-):
- Comfortable interiors with full headroom
- Double bed and storage
- Woolly blanket and light cotton sleeping bag
The Das Park Hotel rooms are small, but are safely secured by a code-lock door, and provide a comfortable two-person bed, blankets and sleeping bags, storage for your clothes and backpacks, and a small lamp for light.
The most unique part of this hotel is that you reserve your room, and pay as you wish. Yes! You pay what you want to pay for the room.

For toilets and showers, guests can visit a nearby “petrol” station to settle their sanitary necessities. Restaurants for breakfast are just a short walk away. The hotel is open only between May and October.
These 2 meter x 2.5 meter cement tubes are located on the lovely green grass of Rodlpark, in Ottensheim, Austria, where the annual Open Air Ottensheim music festival happens (making them a perfect place for concert goers to crash).
According to the Das Park Hotel site, check-out time is at 12 noon. If you sleep past your check-out timing, you might end up in another part of Austria. 
Just kidding!

Hi there,
Everything dynamic and very positively!
Have a nice day
Very creative idea(!), but doesn’t it get cold at night ?

@Hypnosisstories, I suppose heating is available inside
These little pods look cool. I’m sure it would attract visitors just for the novelty of staying in a drain pipe, lol. See the travellers castle for Cheap accommodation in cairns.

Its a great idea and cheap, But doesn’t it get cold at night?
It’s a great start for new ideas for different types of motels.
This way it can cut down the price to pay for supplies and save the trees.
i guess it comes with heating so occupants are kept warm at night – definitely a very eco-friendly hotel option.
Definitely very special

Reminds me of the hotels in Japan. Like the idea would be fun for one night. Kind of like camping but with out a tent.

What do you mean by saying “you oay what you want”. How can the government maintain it, then?
u mean “u pay what you want”? I guess its a private enterprise and occupants might be quite reasonable so far. Even then its just a large pipe hotel
