Hang Nga Guesthouse (Crazy House Hotel) - Dalat, Vietnam
Hang Nga Guesthouse, or Crazy House as it's known by locals, is a bizarre Vietnamese hotel comprised of twisting passageways, tree-like exteriors, spider web windows, and shonky ladders leading to precarious rooms. There's also a selection of creepy stylised animals thrown in for good measure...

It helps when your father was a former president.

Built entirely of salt, yes you read that correctly, Palacio de Sal Bolivia is the first hotel of its kind. The floors, walls, ceilings and even much of the furniture is made of it. The 16 guest rooms look
