Want to sleep under the sea? The company Planet Ocean has plans for an exciting underwater hotel, which they hope to build in locations all over the world.
The hotel won’t be large, with only 12 guest rooms, plus a restaurant. Guests will get to the hotel in a lift – so no diving or getting wet! The hotel will float 10 metres under the ocean, although it will be attached to the sea bed to prevent it from moving too far. Because it won’t be very deep under the water, the sun will shine down and provide light. Guests will get great close-up views of the fish and other seacreatures, which won’t be bothered by the hotel and so won’t make any effort to avoid it.
What do we learn about the hotel?
A Guests will have to swim down to get to it.
B Its lights will shine into the sea so guests can see the fish.
C It will only have a small number of rooms.
D Fish and other sea creatures will be scared of it.
