Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Not Hotel

If you've always wanted to stay in a hidden room behind a library bookcase or sleep inside an old tram car, this quirky budget hotel, inside a large brick complex in the up-and-coming De Baarsjes area, is for you. Artists from the Eindhoven Design Academy have built out concepts like the Casa No Casa (in the style of a Spanish villa) and the Printed House Room (where much of the decor, down to the comforter cover, has literally been printed) to create 23 unique places to sleep—although that's pretty much all they are, since each is only big enough for a bed or two, very spare, and (most) share a large communal bathroom reminiscent of a hostel. That said, guests are encouraged to spend more time hobnobbing in the sleek, industrial bar (cheekily named Kevin Bacon), lounging in the comfy couches in the sitting area, or exploring nearby restaurants.
