World: Prison Hotels

For Browsing

Prison hotel – this is a new type of hotel built in gloomy, barred abandoned prisons to justify the money spent on reconstruction and thus preserve buildings protected as historical monuments. This type of hotel is chosen by travelers seeking adventurous, themed hotels to experience firsthand what it’s like to sleep "behind bars." Some hotels additionally offer prison uniforms as pajamas, similar to those worn by inmates. Tourists can also stand trial or even spend the night on prison bunks. Sometimes it is possible to visit museum-style replicas of cells. To date, existing hotels of this type on four continents do not fit into any specific hotel category but cover various price segments.
