Also, each room comes with a bike. Guests would be able to use the bike to get around or as an exercise bike that stores kinetic energy to power small gadgets and lights in the hotel room.

What do you think, is this the hotel of the future? What great, beautiful eco hotels have you been to that we all need to know about?
