Haiku hotel reviews

January 22, 2012

Why? Because every hotel stay should be poetic.

Name: http://www.hotelhaiku.com

What it is: A niche website with hotel photos and reviews written in the traditional haiku format of 17 syllables in three lines of five, seven and five.

What's hot: Expect the unexpected. My hotel haiku exploration led me to beds in luxe concrete sewer pipes in Tepoztlan, Mexico, and contemporary cottages on a breathtaking mountain ridge in Leti, India. From the brains behind Holiday Pad - I love that the Web group is growing and is adding a "glamping" site called http://www.camp-bling.com.

Story continues below.

What's not: The word notel is confusing and not necessary. We get that the transcendentally cool accommodations aren't your typical hotel.
