Next time you find yourself looking for a place to stay in Stockholm, try the Jumbo Hostel, a new hotel being constructed inside the frame of an old Boeing 747.
Once finished, the hotel will have 85 bedrooms (with shared bathrooms), each with a flat-panel TV and wireless internet access. If you've ever wanted to stand on the wing of a plane, or just like to take your coffee outside, you're in luck; the left wing of the aircraft has been outfitted with a walkway to serve as a communal veranda for guests. The Honeymoon suite, a luxury unit on the upper deck complete with original aircraft fittings, preserves the look and feel of the aircrafts transcontinental heyday. And if you need to catch a flight in the morning, there is no need for a taxi -- the Jumbo Hostel is a 10-minute walk from Arlanda's main terminal.
