Travelodge – Europe’s First Container Hotel

Travelodge Hotel just opened in London, England and although it might not look like anything special, it’s much different than ordinary hotels for the simple reason that it’s made out of containers. That’s right, those large metal boxes container-ships carry around. This is a first for Europe, but in China container-hotels are common, especially in Shanghai.

Travelodge has 120 rooms, but you can relax, they look nothing like the inside of a container. They are ecquiped with all the facilities you can find in any normal hotel room and if the hotel is able dismantled, the containers can be use for shiping. This is what experts call an ecological building

    It really looks great from outside. But I found that Travelodge Pod uses 1 pipeline for both sewage/soil water and waster water drainage, which will cause problem if there is a disease like SARS will be spead by sewage water. Agson prefab modular container hotel is using seperate pipeline to avoid that situation.

    Prefab hotel, made in China
