Exciting retro suite in Italy celebrates the wild 50s in America
A bright red Chevrolet with built-in mini pool inspires guests of a spectacular designed hotel room in Turin with irresistible vintage flair
Take yourself back to 1950s America and experience the atmosphere of a classic drive-in somewhere in the United States. This theme suite makes it possible.
Round bed, chessboard-like base in black and white, characteristic wall decor, neon panels and red-and-white striped dinner furniture in the style of the time offer authentic retro flair.
The spectacular centrepiece of the hotel suite is a bright red pick up with a built-in mini pool on the loading area, from which you have visual contact - as in the real drive-in - with a large screen opposite.

The spectacular centrepiece of the hotel suite is a bright red pick up with a built-in mini pool on the loading area, from which you have visual contact - as in the real drive-in - with a large screen opposite.
Instead of a rendezvous at the kidney table, the 75 square metre retro suite offers an adventurous journey back to the America of the 50s. Whether having a cocktail in the driver's cabin or taking a bath in the built-in bubble bath on the pick-up platform, the atmosphere of the wild Rockin' Fifties is always present.
The original Chevrolet as an eye-catcher, drive-in cinema and American Diner are just as much a part of the American decade's attitude to life. The sight of the cult truck, which was especially appreciated by farmers, shines not only with men's eyes. Vintage romanticism and nostalgia are combined here with modern media and lighting technology to create an exclusive experience.
The accommodation is soundproofed so that guests do not only get into full swing in the Chevy, so that neither noise can penetrate outside nor disturbances from outside are to be feared.
The suite also offers a flat screen TV with large screen, room safe and air conditioning, as well as free care products, hair dryer and towels in your own bathroom. Additional comfort is provided by free WLAN, room service and a free mini-bar.
The four-star hotel is only a 10-minute drive from downtown Turin. The airport of Turin can be reached by car within 15 minutes.
In addition to a 24-hour reception, free newspapers and room service, guests can use practical facilities such as an elevator, luggage room and safe.
Breakfast and parking are included in the price. The general hotel facilities include a chic restaurant, a bar, 2 conference rooms and a bright fitness room. Guests also have access to a wellness area with sauna and whirlpool.
From $289,- per night (Exchange rate August 2018)
for 2 persons including breakfast and parking

Organic Farm Glamping in former grain silos on Lake Constance
Romantic cuddle nests with sky view for stargazers in converted feed silos in Switzerland
Where grain used to be stored, a Swiss adventure farm in the canton of Schaffhausen offers unusual overnight accommodation with a special attraction.
Two converted silos on a meadow above Lake Constance can each accommodate two people. The cosy sleeping places on a retracted wooden gallery in the upper area of the 4.50-metre-high attic are accessible via a ladder staircase. In dry weather, the skylight remains open for a romantic night outdoors.
The round shape of the former silo promises romantic togetherness. Although the windowless depot does not at first give the impression of cosy accommodation, the unexpected inner life holds an original cuddling nest for stargazers in love. On the upper floor there are two mattress dormitories directly under the folding roof. Below, a small'lounge' with a basket bench, shelf and folding table serves as a dressing room and storage room or as a cosy hiding place for a nightcap drink.
In the evening guests have the choice between a delicious 3-course menu from the organic farm kitchen and a romantic picnic for two at the silo. The environmentally friendly sleeping silos for couples fit into the concept of the certified organic farm, which is also an ideal starting point for a tour of Schaffhausen and the Rhine Falls or a bicycle tour along Lake Constance.
Agriculture has been organic for more than 20 years and, in addition to the direct marketing of milk and meat, has specialised in the cultivation of old vegetables such as spring cabbage, Chioggia beetroot, Palatinate and Küttiger carrots. In addition, adventure tourism was expanded as a further mainstay. Dairy farming plays a key role here. A herd of water buffalo and 25 organic pasture cattle populate the meadows around the farm. Popular activities include milking cows, carriage rides, sawing wood, rubber boat tours on the Rhine or adventure cheese in the copper kettle.
However, cow riding has proven to be a unique top attraction and tourist magnet. Never has the term'cowboy' and'cowgirl' been more accurate than here. During cow trekking, cow and rider undertake an adventurous ride across meadows and fields (1,5 hours approx. 89,- EUR per cow) after a short introduction and the climbing of the'saddled' cow.
Since the silos are not heatable, an overnight stay is recommended only in the warm summer months. In cool weather a sleeping bag should be brought along. Toilets and showers are available in the common area of the Biohof. The price includes breakfast, bed linen and towels for two persons. The guests expect freshly made beds on arrival.
From $142,- per night for 2 persons (including breakfast, bed linen and towels)

10 Stimulating love nests for enamoured couples in Italy
Maritime love nest for adventurous treasure hunters and passionate weekend buccaneers
Ahoy sailors! If you've ever dreamed of hiring on a pirate ship, you'll find the fulfillment of your dreams in this suite.
In the captain's luxurious quarters even hopeless landlubbers can prove their qualities on the high seas without having to do without the amenities of a shore leave.
The luxurious equipment on board includes a blue tiled whirlpool, a funny flickering fire in the sweeping fireplace and a bottle of Californian wine.
In the cosy captain's berth you need fear neither seasickness nor mutiny. On the 'big caper ride' red signal lanterns give orientation for the decisive pillow fight to the sound of seagull screams and stormy waves.
On deck, of course, a real cannon is not to be missed. However, its final battle takes on a new function as a practical coffee table. And if you solve the secret of the treasure map on the wall, you will find a veritable rum barrel in the well-hidden bathroom, which serves as a wash basin.
In order to pass the time in the doldrums, you can either get cinematic inspiration from 'Pirates of the Carribean' or 'Captain Blood' or learn to cheat from playing Kribbitsch cards. Hand-painted tiles, colourful glass windows, wooden ship's hatches and a well-filled pirate's chest make this trip into the world of pirates and corsairs perfect.
Hidden bathrooms, cast-iron spiral staircases, a 340 kilogram cannon coffee table, a gypsy cart, an Egyptian sarcophagus, a solid stone door weighing more than half a ton, a chariot and an original 1956 Cadillac convertible are just some of the many curiosities that make the Victorian villa an imaginative synthesis of the arts.
The original owner was a creative visionary. He renovated the neighboring hotel, a former Wells Fargo stagecoach stop, and thought up the theme suites that soon attracted guests from all over the world before the Santa Ynez Valley became a famous wine-growing region.
After his death, the present owner took over the hotel in 2007, which he himself had visited many years earlier. He not only saved the gem from decay, but also brought back the old splendour through an elaborate restoration. He shares his dream of a'Disneyland for adults' with the actual builder. Two more suites are planned for the future, a tree house suite and a'Castaway' suite, for which a sailing dinghy built in 1914 for the King of Denmark will be used.

The 'Pirate's Nest Suite' is only one of a total of six unusual themed suites and is located in a historic mansion dating from 1864, which was moved from Nipomo in California to its current location in the Santa Ynez wine growing region in 1980.
More than 200 experienced craftsmen, craftsmen and artists spent almost 10 years designing the unusual hotel rooms. The fresco painter alone took more than two years (with over forty hours of work per week) to complete the wall decorations.

The Victorian mansion is ideally located in the wine-growing region of Santa Ynez - a Californian wine region that gained international fame through the film "Sideways". Located directly on the 101 freeway, the small town is a perfect stopover on the way to visit Hearst Castle or San Francisco.
Also from Santa Barbara or Los Angeles the property with its imaginative six suites is only a short romantic drive away.
From $ 245,- per night for 2 persons including breakfast & bottle of Californian wine
