Ever wanted to sleep looking off at the beautiful Peruvian view? Now one can stay at the floating glass Skylodge Adventure Suites.
Hanging at 1,200 feet above ground are four glass pods suspended on the side of the mountain Via Ferrata, according to naturavive.com. This “hotel” opened in June of 2013, and is the first hanging lodge.
To get to this hotel, one must hike up a trail up Via Ferrata, and fly through with a series of ziplines, according to naturavive.com. In order to leave, guests could zipline down the mountain, according to cnn.com.
Each capsule can fit a maximum number of 8 people. In each suite, there are four beds, a dining area, and a bathroom. There are six windows, and four ventilation ducts to create a comfortable atmosphere. All lighting is powered by solar panels, according to cnbc.com.
“The motivation behind these dramatic lodges was to offer “a unique experience that [connects guests] with nature or make them realize what really luxury can be,” Natalia Rodriquez, the Skylodge manager, stated to cnn.com.

Honestly,it seems like a cool idea but the thing is that there lawsuits waiting to happen because what if the zipline broke?Would that mean nobody would be able to leave the hotel or will somebody go to the hospital trying to.But, besides that seems like a unique idea for a hotel.
