One night only venues

Laterooms.com is running a competition for consumers to experience one-off hotel stays at unusual locations, including the Eden Project in Cornwall and The London Dungeons

As part of the competition, the company also surveyed 1,500 people to find out where, if there were no boundaries, they would like to stay for the night. Here are the top ten results:

1. Buckingham Palace
2. Edinburgh Castle
3. Eden Project, Cornwall
4. Downing Street
5. Tower of London
6. Harrods store in London
7. Balmoral, Scotland
8. Stonehenge
9. Old Trafford football stadium, Manchester
10. An aquarium

It would usually be at this point that we would advise anyone staying away at a hotel or other venue to remember health and safety. But, to be honest, if you are staying the night in Jack The Ripper’s chamber I think coming out alive is your main priority (if this blog had sound effects, there would be a wicked laugh sounding right about now!)

The list above only covers the UK, so we would be interested to know what unusual places overseas you would like to spend a night? A pyramid in Egypt or the Taj Mahal, maybe?
