The Riklin brothers, two Swiss artists, tried an original concept.
They offer somewhat special hotel rooms in Saillon, Switzerland.
A “room” without wall or ceiling with a bed and two bedside tables on a platform in the middle of nowhere, well almost.
In this ephemeral hotel nicknamed “the zero star hotel”, it is possible to sleep on a picturesque hill, in a vineyard or quite simply next to a petrol station.

These comfortable rooms are in fact an artistic performance intended to alert people to global crises.
The two artists invite people to question themselves during a sleepless night under the stars, on the urgent changes in society.
“Now is not the time to sleep, we have to react,” explains Patrik Riklin.
His brother Frank adds: "If we continue in the same direction as today, there could be more anti-idyllic places than idyllic places".
