4La Balade des Gnomes, Durbuy, Belgium
La Balade des Gnomes is one of the world’s wackiest hotels, located in Durbuy, Belgium.
It is unusual to spend a night inside a Trojan horse or sleep with a mermaid? Not for people who love fairy tales and Disney cartoons.
The fairy tale hotel features a design inspired from the 4 corners of the world.
Architect Dominique Noel, who is also the the owner, said : ‘ I wanted the hotel to be almost imaginary, with a youthful essence and work harmoniously with nature.
The hotel was created by people who have a strong interest in nature. It is built from completely natural materials and celebrates the simplicity of modern times.‘
‘La Balade des Gnomes’ means ‘The Walk of the Gnomes’, where each room offers a feeling like one of Tim Burton’s movies.
Each room features wooden toadstools, starry skies and crooked windows.
