On a recent trip to Iceland, I spent a night at Buubble by Airmango, where guests can sleep in transparent bubbles with unobstructed views of the sky.
Also known as The 5 Million Star Hotel, Buubble by Airmango has two locations: one on Iceland's south coast, and the one I visited in Hrosshagi along Iceland's Golden Circle. The clear bubbles offer views of the northern lights in the wintertime and Iceland's midnight sun during the summer months of 24-hour daylight.
I paid 54,900 ISK, or $403.85, for a one-night stay in June. Here are seven things that surprised me during my trip.
