Hotel on Wheels

Mobile Hotels Concepts

Imagine a fully-equipped room appearing in the location of your choice: in a nature reserve, by the sea, or at your favorite festival.

Concepts like these hotels emerge regularly. For instance, a design studio from Toronto introduced the Autonomous Travel Suite (ATS) project a few years ago – mobile hotel complexes that combine a hotel and a driverless car. The module can transport you to your specified destination while you relax or attend to your business. The idea quickly earned multiple awards, including Winner @ Radical Innovation Award 2018, Awards of Merit @ AZ Awards 2019, and Runner Up @ ACDA Awards 2018.

The Scandic hotel chain implemented the idea of delivering a hotel to the location specified by the customer under the brand Scandic To Go. The mobile hotel became a sensation on the first days of sales, and available rooms were booked almost instantly.

In Antwerp, home to one of Europe's largest seaports, you can encounter a mobile hotel created from shipping containers. The project is called Sleeping Around, and each room has everything necessary for comfortable living. Besides secluded peaceful locations, you can find Sleeping Around at events, festivals, sports competitions, and other locations where traditional hotel rentals are unavailable.

Volkner Mobil Performance positions their vehicle as a hotel that can travel anywhere in the comfort that five-star hotel visitors are accustomed to. Inside each of these vehicles are full-fledged rooms, bathrooms, dining areas, and common spaces for relaxation and socializing. The cost of such a mobile hotel exceeds 2 million dollars.

Smart Hotel on Wheels: What's Inside

Contrary to the still existing belief, a mobile home on wheels is not always a story about cramped conditions in exchange for freedom of movement. The Autonomous Travel Suite is equipped with panoramic smart windows that adjust natural lighting inside the module. In Sleeping Around, guests can enjoy a tropical shower and modern lighting system. In Volkner Mobil Performance, in addition to multimedia and climate systems, you can even have your own retractable garage. Mobile homes are becoming more and more modern with each passing year, and the concept of a Smart House on Wheels, as well as a Smart Hotel on Wheels, is not far off.
