That's what they charge at this hotel. And they have a policy about not LICKING THE WALLS! Why? Because it is a hotel made of salt! I don't think I could. Ick! Interesting things in the news! lol http://screen.yahoo.com/the-amazing-bolivian-salt-hotel-31109426.html

They actually have a hotel made of salt! That is just unbelievable. I don't think I would pay that price for a hotel made of salt. How safe can it be to stay in a building made of salt anyway? The hotel may just collapse any time with a tiny shake. Besides, imagine those salt sticking all over your body when you are staying in such a hotel, it would really be uncomfortable at least for me. So pardon me, I would still go for the conventional hotels if I am going for a trip.

They have one over in Russia or Holland or somewhere over there in the sub zero temperatures...that they build every year...out of ICE. I saw it on a Discovery show and they showed how they move in those huge huge blocks of ice and create the rooms etc. It is booked in advance, ( didn't say how much) but is only "available" for a few weeks before the thaw begins. I can't tell if it is all "see-thru" as sometimes ice isn't total see thru, but sometimes it is! I think it'd be interesting to see nad maybe even stay at.. I just don't remember how they said it was heated, however, I know that there is something about the colder it is the warmer it keeps you..that is why if stranded in a snow blizzard...you dig yourself a snow hole and climb in.

That's interesting. The whole hotel is made up of salt??? I'll remember that the next time I'm cooking eggs. A lot of interesting places came up lately. I saw on TV once that another hotel is built underground with complex air ventilation system since it's underground. Another one was made out of a cave. They modified the cave so that people can live in it, and of course pay for the stay. I guess conventional hotels bore people so they try to find something new, like this hotel made of salt.

It reminds me of all those ice hotels that pop out from time to time and only last for 6 months(due to the weather). I myself would prefer to fork out an extra $40 and stay in a nice hotel with good service and something slightly sweeter.

Not easily esp. not because I seldom go to a hotel alone. Paying for a whole family would simply cost me way too much. I think a hotel made of salt will feel cold, salt will melt also. I have some salt lamps in my house and they did some damage to furniture but also electricity cables (I noticed it too late).

I would be scared it would somehow fall apart. So no I don't think I could stay there even if it were cheap. Nice, novel idea tho.
