Bears, wolves and deer — oh my!
A Belgian zoo is offering guests a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to share a room with mammals, birds and animals of all kinds.
Deemed as “Europe’s best zoo,” Pairi Daiza is now allowing guests to fully experience wild animal life at all hours of the day.
Imagine waking up alongside a walrus, penguin, wolf or polar bear?
It could sound like a nightmare to some — but at the Pairi Daiza resort in Brugelette, Belgium, guests are paying for rooms and suites that start at a little over $100 a night to do exactly that.
This unique resort offers spacious suites and lodges that overlook animals on all fours — or mammals bopping underwater.
Each of the rooms has giant glass walls that give adventurous guests an insight into the lives of these creatures.
The zoo has over 7,500 animals in different themed areas, and according to Luxury Travel Daily, the resort has over 100 different rooms with amazing views of many of these animals that guests can choose from.
Talk about a fever dream.
Aside from being a unique place to vacation, Pairi Daiza is also an Arctic Ambassador for Polar Bears International, which is a non-profit conservation organization.
“We focus on the quality of our facilities for polar bears, our commitment to fighting climate change, and our efforts to raise awareness about the threats to biodiversity,” the resort said, according to Jam Press.
And the Pairi Daiz resort is just one of many hotels trying to offer guests an unforgettable experience.
“Hotels stand out from the crowd by offering unique experiences for their guests,” Susan Zurbin-Hothersall, travel agent at the Travel Edge Network, told The Post.
“They can include properties that are located in one-of-a-kind areas (mountaintops, remote wilderness, historic districts), have distinctive architecture, interior design elements, memorable amenities, such as rooftop bars, customized meals, spas in areas, sustainability focus,” she added.
If you’re looking to stay abroad — and bonus points if you love history — the Argos Hotel in Cappadocia, Turkey, is in a 2,000-year-old monastery. As a result, you can book a stay in one of their ancient cave or tunnel rooms.
And if you’re a Northern Lights buff, the Hotel Ranga in Hella, Iceland is tucked away in a remote area with barely any artificial light.
The property has telescopes for prime stargazing and a chance to see the Northern Lights.
