The Coolest Airstream Hotels Around The World (PHOTOS)

First Posted: 08/22/11 01:05 PM ET   Updated: 10/22/11 06:12 AM ET

Used to be, sleeping in an RV was a step down from staying in a hotel. In the past few years though, the cool kids have started paying big bucks to go old school: Trailer park sleeps are proliferating from here to South Africa.

Herewith, a look at seven retro-chic boutiques where you can camp out in a vintage RV, Airstream and otherwise.

Not content to simply spend a couple nights? You can buy fully tricked out trailers for "just" $57 746, reports Design Sponge.

Belrepayre Airstream & Retro Trailer Park
This French resort claims to be "the first vintage trailer park in Europe," and with 10 Airstreams on hand, it's likely the largest, too. Tricked out to fit themes as diverse as Studio 54 and Starship, the trailers can be let for as little as €85 a night, with a stay of three or more nights. A bonus: Soaking in the camp's cedar hot tub in the foothills of the beautiful Pyrenees.

These are mere wannabees compared to The Shady Dell in Bisbee, Arizona.

The ones in Berlin look like you're staying in a contemporary art museum! Pretty cool.

I wonder if the trailer park from the Long Long Trailer (I think it's in Laguna Beach) is still around
or is it a mega luxury resort now.

I had a magazine years ago that showed pics of "Caravans" of Airstreams whose owners would take all over the earth in mass, they must have had some bucks, and the Airstreams were amazing homes on wheels.

This looks like one of the pics: http://www.rvbusiness.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Wally-Byam-caravan-in-front-of-thepyramids..jpg

I'd never pay that much for the kitsch, but Airstreams are pretty cool. As are yurts and converted storage containers.
