\"Atlantis,

Sea and Be Seen: The Poseidon and Neptune Super Suites at Atlantis, the Palm in Dubai offer incredible aquarium views.<\/p><\/div>\n

Face it: everyone wants a \u201croom with a view.\u201d After all, the designation usually connotes an idyllic oceanfront, skyline or mountain setting. At a few spots, though, it\u2019s really taken to heart.<\/p>\n

Take Resorts World Sentosa in Singapore, site of Universal Studios Singapore, as an example. There, 11 two-story \u201cocean suites\u201d await at the on-site Equarius Hotel<\/a>. Gazing through the first-floor window right into the 12-million-gallon tank at Marine Life Park will keep you busy for a while. But if you happen to tire of that, you can always hit the casino.<\/p>\n

If water is your thing, you might also check out Atlantis, The Palm in Dubai,<\/a> which houses two three-floor underwater suites with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking an aquarium. During your stay, make time for a dolphin encounter, and relax knowing that a private butler has your back.<\/p>\n

Then again, there\u2019s always industrial-meets-modern Silogie, a Netherlands<\/a>-situated B&B with rooms set in a converted silo facing the meadows or village of Epe. Awash in wood and brick, the suites have private entries and kitchenettes, paving the way for comfortable stays.<\/p>\n

At Madrid\u2019s avant-garde Hotel Silken Puerta Am\u00e9rica<\/a>, on the other hand, you can expect a trippy\u2014not tranquil\u2014sojourn. Each of the property\u2019s 12 floors is designed by a different, notable architect. Some are straight-up strange, like the Jetsons-esque Corian sprawl by 2004 Pritzker Prize winner Zaha Hadid. And if you happen upon the floor four, expect to face Eva Castro and Holger Kehne\u2019s steel-faceted space, which exudes a disorienting, airplane cabin vibe. Do you get a restful sleep? Not really, but it sure is an experience.<\/p>\n

If you prefer to remain Stateside, consider flying to Seattle<\/a> for a respite at the Rolling Huts. Situated in Washington’s Methow Valley, the modern wheeled \u201chuts\u201d offer an alternative to camping, with mountain views and all the comforts of home.<\/p>\n
