The Netherlands' Crane Hotels

The Netherlands has at least two hotels built into decommissioned industrial cranes. If you want to get a scenic view of a shipyard from the window of a luxurious hotel room, then these are the places to go.
One is the Faralda NDSM Crane Hotel, which has three rotating suites, a TV studio, and the opportunity to go bungee jumping.

There’s even an outdoor jacuzzi, so guests can relax in warm, flowing water while gazing out over Amsterdam.

The other crane hotel is in the port city of Harlingen. The Harbourcrane has only one suite for two people, but that one suite has only the finest of furnishings. The owners spent 2 years refitting the old timber hauler into a romantic getaway.
