The Mirrororcube, is a three-story micro-hotel located in the village of Harads approximately 60km south of the Arctic Circle, right in the middle of nowhere. It is part of a bizarre chain of Tree hotels created to keep guests in harmony with nature.

Aside from the UFO and Hanging birds nest rooms (pictured bellow); the Mirrorcube stands out as one of the more unusual and captivating designs.

UFO and Hanging birds nest rooms

What seems to be the same cloaking capabilities that the Predator had, the semi-invisible and yes, bird-safe structure has a unique thin infrared film on its outer walls, apparently only visible to winged, egg laying animals.

Built in 2010 by architects Bolle Tham & Martin Videgård, the interior consists of plywood, while the windows give a 360-degree view of the entire forest. The cube provides living space for two people: a double bed, bath, a living room and roof terrace. Unfortunately there are no elevators as, access to the cabin is only available by a rope bridge.

Prices start at 3000 Swedish krona ($453) per night for the cheapest room and 4200 Swedish krona ($635) for the Mirrorcube.
