art hotels A modern art gallery is a place where you can lose yourself in an artist's vision of the world.A hotel is essentially a place where you can spend the night,in either more or less comfort,according to your budget.As its advertising promises,Propeller Island City Lodge in Berlin manages to combine the two.Housed in a former apartment block , the hotel is a collection of individually designed rooms the upside-down room,the all orange room,the mirror room which are often so extreme that you have no choice but to get into the spirit of it.In some art hotels,you can forget the art and simply enjoy the comfort of your surroundings.That's not the case with Propeller Island.The rooms can be small and claustrophobic(although some have balconies)and often you have to share a bathroom with other guests.But if you don't mind that,it may be the next best thing to spending the night in a gallery.
