Cheapflights.co.uk Spots the Trend for Hotel Stays with a Spin

LONDON, July 11, 2011 -

- Get on trend with themed holidays and lifestyle locations in
the world’s wackiest hotel hideaways -

As the trend for all things ‘lifestyle’ continues to grow, so
does the trend of the boutique hotel. Over the last few years,
reports have shown a rise in popularity for hotels that fit within
a holiday theme or lifestyle personality rather than just acting as
a place to stay. To serve the trend, numerous novelty hotels have
cropped up year after year, dotted throughout different parts of
the world.

Whatever the destination, whatever the budget, the UK’s leading
website for travel search and comparison points holidaymakers
towards hotels that suit their lifestyle, personality or holiday
theme with its choice of the world’s top quirkiest hotels.
Cheapflights.co.uk can also help you get there by allowing you to
search and compare href="www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Bangkok/">flights to
Bangkok, New York, Amsterdam and other fabulous locations.

“While it might sound expensive, boutique hotels can often be
more cost effective than their big chain counterparts,” says Nadine
Hallak, Travel Expert for href="www.cheapflights.co.uk/">Cheapflights.co.uk.

“No longer serving as just somewhere to stay, hotels today serve
to act as either a home away from home, or an alternate universe
where travellers can literally live out a dream or lifestyle
interest,” adds Hallak.

V8 Germany

The only way the auto-geared V8 Hotel in Stuttgart, Germany
could be more car-centric is if the hotel itself could be driven.
Each of the 34 rooms is decorated in a different auto theme, such
as a car wash, caravan or racing. Even the beds in some rooms are
made from cars. Best of all, there’s no need to change a tire,
check the brakes, or fill up on pricey petrol before turning in for
the night, and there’s no risk of being clamped mid-slumber. Search
