Amazing Treehotel

The Treehotel is located in the forests of Harads, northern Sweden, with stunning views of the valley of the Lulea River.

While previous tree houses are fairly basic, the new hotel will feature six uniquely themed Treerooms created by five different architects — The UFO, The Cabin, The Blue Cone, The Nest and The Mirrorcube.

The hotel’s designers also wanted to minimise any impact on nature. They decided to apply a special film that is visible only to birds to the glass in order to prevent birds colliding with the structure.

The Treehotel, opened on July 17, will be open all year round. In the winter temperatures can plummet to -30 degrees so each room will have an electric under-floor heating system. The rooms have been constructed from wood and glass and feature an eco-friendly incineration toilet and water efficient hand basin.

They will vary from 15-30 square metres and range from between 4-6 metres from the ground. The rooms are accessible using a ramp or stairs. But the experience comes at a price - a night at the Treehotel costs upwards of 3500 kronor (approx. US$ 479).
