Travel fantasy: Treehotel

Treehotel is a brand new design hotel in northern Sweden, less than an hour from the Arctic Circle. The Mirrorcube room, above, has a double bed and roof deck, and you access it by rope bridge. I can't believe how beautiful it is! Wouldn't you die to stay there?

P.S. More travel fantasies.

Wow! That's incredible. Thanks, Joanna :)

Penny Dreadful said...

Oooh this is lovely. I would feel like the off note in that pristine setting though; that slick Scandinavian style always makes me feel like such a slob :)

That's Not My Age said...

It's gorgeous - I'm totally obsessed with Scandinavian design so I could be very happy there!

RootingForTinyVictories said...

Thanks for this! Wow. I'm realizing everything cool exists in Sweden...

annelise said...

People's creativity absolutely blows my mind. Incredible.

There's a treehouse restaurant in New Zealand I saw photos of last year which started my treehouse love. It's absolutely gorgeous.

Angie said...

what about the birds that fly into the cube?! :(

Joanna Goddard said...

angie, don't worry! they've thought of that: "To prevent birds colliding with the tree hotel, a infrared film, visible for birds only, will be laminated into the glass panes."

Nikki said...

Wow this looks fake!
so beautiful for sure.

Café Bellini said...

Wow cool! But what about toilets?!

Kokoro said...

no really keen on this project..to me it looks like a bad example of symbiosis human + nature..i was in love with Treehouse Point though!

Yolksy said...

I'm dying here! That is insanely gorgeous!

christina said...

the mirrors are great but I'm afraid of heights so I would definitely die to stay there ;)

C. said...

Little House in Lawrence said...

Melissa Blake said...

Simply stunning!

esdelope said...

How much do I want to vacation to a tree house? Something about this in the middle of autumn, being able to hide away in all of the Technicolor fauna seems dreamy :)

Jessica said...

That is incredible! I'd love to go.

sherri said...

Inspired Shares said...

Tammie Lee said...

extremely wild, I love the imaginations of people. Anything is possible.

Dvora Schleffer Designs said...

Wow, this sounds like a really unique experience.

Dancing Branflake said...

Fun! I love the whimsical aspect of it. Who didn't dream of living in a tree house like Tarzan when they were younger? Amazing!

Jen @ Opal Never Shouts said...

That is a pretty sweet hotel. I can't beleive one tree supports the building! Amazing.

D&amp;D said...

i think this is beautiful but i won't lie - i'd be scared up there! i think i'd have to wear a harness....

tash said...

Yes yes yes! Absolutely dying to stay anywhere that immerses you in the trees but doesn't have you living and looking like 'tree people'! haha

love!

Breath taking! Scandinavian design remains as always, brilliant.

Joanna Goddard said...

anonymous, there's a toilet and basin in the house, and another building has the showers. xo

maggie said...

OMG! the cabin looks unbelieveable.

stephanie said...

so neat!! definitely would love to experience that

Sarah said...

Whoa. I'd rather camp on the ground, old-school style, but these are amazing!

ag. said...

i can't even wrap my head around this! :) it's so unique!

GWJ said...

Very Cool! Leave it to the wonderful Sweden to have something so incredible.

P.S. Your blog is amazing!

abigail said...

I love this!

Aspiring Kennedy said...

yes- i would die to stay there! :)

on a really embarrassing, dorky, twilight note- this totally looks like a place edward would take bella to hide out. :) haha!

amynicole said...

this is so gnarly! i would go here in a second! so are all of these little tree rooms in the same forest then? probably huh. the swedish always have cool things. so rad. so rad. so rad.

Annie said...

Get out! I cannot believe this currently exists somewhere right now! I would love, love, love to stay here - it would be my perfect version of "camping" :)

nick said...

awesome! i wonder how many birds fly into that thing...lol.

simplysandi said...

How positively romantical!

helenreaddy said...

Wow the mirrored cube is just awesome! I love all things mirrored! I bet it's even furnished with mirrored furniture ! Can you imagine watching a glorious sunset in the cube with all the wonderful colours reflecting? mirrored furniture has come a long way. What a stunning and beautiful way to use decorative mirrors

Wahzat Gayle said...

It is gorgeous.... but you wouldn't catch me anywhere near that hotel. Petrified of heights

Nicole* said...

oh my gosh - it's incredible!

Megan Taylor said...

That immediately makes me think of this place in Big Sur, called TreeBones. They have yurts and cabins to rent, but they also have a human nest...

Jacklyn said...

Oh wow. I would love to go there!

Mackenzie {Design Darling} said...

WOW. This is now right up there with the Giraffe Manor for me!

jenn said...

that's beautiful. what amazing dreams a person would have there.

Anonymous said...

That is beautiful. I wonder how many birds have died by flying in to it though :-(

Nina said...

that is amazing. thank you. I think itd be a little scary, don't you?

vlad said...

Very cool. Interesting vacation. And the toilet?

dewfall said...

It looks cool, but after sleeping in an OPEN WINDOW(covered only be cloth) cabin for a few nights during March in Yosemite (it snowed like heck!) I'm done with drafty forest homes. :) It would be nice in summer though.

G. said...

I would die if I stay there! With my vertigo, no way I sleep in an open treehouse! But it does look very modern, and I like modern, maybe I'll go one day...just to take a look...from underneeth... ;-)

I was wondering what is up with that weird gravatar??? I know 5am is early and I'm not looking my best at that hour, but I hope I don't look like this! I might however make that face if I'm asked to do 100 pushups. lol Hvar Island

dining room table said...

That is so unbelievable. That is just so stunning. I thought it is just an effect from computer but when I saw the last picture. I am surprised.

Danny said...

Wow pretty incredible for me that i have listed first time such a hotel on the tree really.
But for human nothing is impossible for it.
but i want to know that inside the hotel every thing is as facilities as city hotels.
ok

jenny said...

Terrific! I want to experience to stay in a Tree Hotel, maybe it feels like heaven.I'm a beach lover I was wondering if you also have beach like in Boracay in that place? Hope so..Thanks for sharing this..

patra316 said...

WoW! This house is really cool!

Paul Byron Downs said...

I remember seeing this tree house in the NY Times and thought it was genius. I do wonder how they clean the outside though:)

I saw this in some Sweden blogs last year. Man, I'm in love with the whole concept. How I wish there's Treehotel near the the Lincoln area so I don't have to fly that far. I wonder what type of roofing they installed. Some dude commented on the blog that the interior isn't good, but hey, who needs extreme interior when you're surrounded by the beautiful nature? I think it's perfect!

Ahh i love this. Its the most beautiful treehouse. I just visited a treehouse in the Champagne region of France yesterday. Ahh nothing better than drunken champagne on swings in the region its made while 30 feet up above the ground!!

I didn't make it this far north, but I did get back from a trip to Sweden, which blew my mind. (This is on my list for next time!) It's such a gorgeous country. You can see my Sweden posts on my blog!
