How it works:
According to the New York Post, for just $40 a night, you can sleep and stay in the huge 28 x 11 bottle located in Chittorgarh, in the Indian state of Rajasthan.
While the bottle’s exterior is a simple wine-red color, the inside is an entire house. It boasts three bedrooms, a bamboo hut with a dining hall, and even an aquarium.
The set up:
One of the bedrooms features arched walls the same color as the exterior. One has a whole wall full of beer bottles that light up. The third bedroom is fairly plain, great for less adventurous guests,” according to Jam Press.
