Rica Dyreparken Hotel

Frommer's Review

This novelty hotel is sure to delight as many as it will alienate. Lying right in one of the most popular holiday parks in Norway, this hotel, which opened in April 2000, was architecturally inspired by Noah's Ark. Staying here should delight animal lovers of all ages. All the public lounges and bedrooms have motifs relating to the animal kingdom -- you might opt to stay in a monkey room or a horse room. Or, choose to relax on an African safari bed or recline in a tiger-striped chair in one of the Jungle Jim bedrooms. The hotel even has its own bridge along the water, as well as a large bar terrace where you can sit out on a summer night enjoying the fresh air. The Norwegian in-house restaurant is named -- you guessed it -- Noah's Ark.
