Prison hotel
A prison hotel is a new form of hotel that is often set up in lightless, barred prison buildings after they have been closed in order to use them for other purposes at reasonable conversion costs and thus to preserve the buildings, which are often listed . They are sought out by travelers who are looking for adventure or theme hotels and who want to experience for themselves what it is like to sleep “behind bars”. Some optionally offer the typical striped convict clothing as nightwear , the demonstration at the judge or even sleeping on prison bunks . Sometimes original cells that have been prepared in a museum can also be viewed.
The hotels represented on four continents cannot be assigned to a specific hotel category, but cover different price segments.
