I am lucky to have tried out the Jumbohostel located at Sweden's Stockholm Arlanda airport, a converted 747 that is now used as a combined hotel/hostel. But I have now seen that there is a place in the Netherlands offering a luxury option:

Looks very nice !! Works out at NZD 554 a night though for a couple. I could do with a few bits out of the cockpit for my sim though.....

smooth landings

Great idea , and very well done.
Had to laugh at one of the comments further down that page "For god's sake don't try to fly the thing...this is the only safe use of a Russian aircraft !!!

A bit harsh i think .... now , the A380 would make a great hotel .
