Forget about your standard hotel when you’re visiting Germany’s automotive area of Stuttgart, instead, you need to check into the V8 Hotel where you can spend a night in a car bed.

No, it’s not like spending the night in your car, instead, there are 26 automotive-themed rooms including British Racing (with a Jaguar as your bed), Barn Find, Off Road (with a Jeep bedhead), Le Mans with pictures of the event, and the Workshop that includes a ‘mechanic’ doing a diagnostics check under the bed!

The ultimate suite is the V12 - The Mercedes Suite. For €655 (NZ$1085) you can book this suite for one night and live it up in a three-level suite including a sauna and a roof-top lounge.

Opened in 2018, this hotel has been attracting people from all over the world, the hotel offers an array of activities, all aimed at automotive, motorcycle, and aircraft lovers alike.
