For a hotel experience quite unlike any other, book the ‘one room hotel’ with www.sleepingaround.eu. It’s still available over Christmas and two nights would set you back €298, a €100 reduction on the usual price.

Essentially, you’ll be staying in a shipping container, but one of unparalleled luxury, described as having, “a double bed, design bathroom with rain shower, sink and toilet by Duravit and Hans Grohe, Dyson heater and air-conditioning and a Jambox docking station”.

The entertaining thing about this hotel is that it moves. It’s currently in Antwerp, and presumably still will be at Christmas, but then it could be off anywhere around the world – you can even suggest where you think it should go.
