We Stayed in Europe’s Lowest and Highest Hotels
## Sleeping on the Edge: A Tale of Two Extreme Hotels
What makes a hotel truly unforgettable? Is it the comfort of a luxurious room, the stunning views, or an incredible location? recently, we decided to push the boundaries of what a hotel stay can look like by booking nights at two of Europe’s most extreme accommodations: Europe’s lowest hotel, buried 1,300 feet underground, and Europe’s highest hotel, perched 10,000 feet above sea level.
From navigating pitch-black tunnels and zip lines to skiing above clouds and relaxing in saunas, these two stays offered experiences we will never forget.Here’s what it’s like to sleep at both ends of Europe’s extremes.
## Europe’s Deepest Hotel: *Deep Sleep, Snowdonia, UK*
Located 1,300 feet below the peak of a mountain in Snowdonia, UK, the Deep Sleep Hotel is not only the deepest hotel in Europe but also the deepest hotel in the entire world. And let me tell you, it’s one of the most insane hotel stays we’ve ever experienced.
### The Journey Down
the journey down to the Deep Sleep Hotel is a massive part of what makes this hotel so unique because the hotel is located deep in an abandoned mine shaft. You can’t simply take an elevator down to the hotel – you have to embark on a wild adventure to get there.
you’ll start by suiting up with the proper gear – helmets, headlamps, rubber boots, and climbing gear – before saying goodbye to the sun for the next 24 hours and squeezing into a deep, dark tunnel.
