If you live and breathe Instagram, you have to check out the month-old 1888 Hotel in Sydney, Australia. The name is an homage to 1888, the year Kodak launched the first box and roll camera — but it's anything but retro.
When you walk into the boutique hotel, you're greeted by a revolving digital mural of Instagram images, and a selfie space to snap a photo of yourself as you check in. More than 100 guest-shot Instagram photos adorn the five-story space's 90 rooms. Check out the hotel on Instagram under the #1888Hotel hashtag to see what we're talking about.
Those who exceed 10,000 followers get a free night's stay. If you don't fall into that category, there's another chance to win some freebies. Once a month, the hotel hosts a friendly competition in which the guests who snap the best photo of the establishment get an additional night's stay on the house (winners are picked based on engagement and composition). If you aren't fortunate enough to win, rooms start around $140.
