Hotel trends: Planes, treehouses and giraffes
Exclusive Feature - A comfortable, clean and central place to crash at the end of a day's exploring – that's what most travellers look for in a hotel, but with increasing competition from alternative accommodation sites like Airbnb, some hotels are trying to set themselves apart by becoming a destination in themselves.
