Leave it to the Dutch to design one of the most resourceful, innovative and uniquely functional hotels to date. The rooms at the De Vrouwe van Stavoren Hotel are made from salvaged French wine casks. Can't believe it? Check out their website.
From what little Dutch I remember during my six- months spent living in Amsterdam a few years ago, "de vrouwe" means "lady." Stavoren is a small harbor town on the coast of the IJesslmeer in the province of Friesland in the Netherlands.
While Friesland doesn't likely see many foreign visitors, the Lady of Stavoren should be a desirable lure for tourists. If you ever find yourself in North Holland, this would certainly be the place to stay. Whether you're a connoisseur of French wines or you're on a mission to sleep in some of the world's most extraordinary places, this hotel is worth a mention. To view more photos, visit Inhabitat.
