The jail was closed in 1990. After that, it underwent a great renovation and reopened as The Liberty Hotel in 2007, following a $150 million refurbishment. This place holds much of the historic structure, with a 16-story guest room addition built around the original design.

Hotell Hackspett, Sweden

In Sweden, you will find the Hotell Hackspett, located in Vasaparken, the main park in Västerås. It's interesting and on this list because it is built 13 meters up in the branches of a huge oak tree. This structure was designed by the well-known artist: Mikael Genberg.

Hotell Hackspett, Sweden (Cont.)

The hotel looks like a classic Swedish red cottage playfully hung up in a tree. It's actually suspended with strong wires to keep the tree safe. Oh, and no nails were used when it was being built. Guests literally had to access the hotel via a rope ladder.
