Unique Opportunity for England Fans: Stay in a Budget-Friendly Bunker during Euros!
As the Euro 2020 tournament draws closer, England fans are on the lookout for affordable accommodation near the stadiums. And now, they have a unique opportunity to stay in a drab bunker in Bochum, Germany for just £26 per night. While it may not be the most glamorous option, it is certainly budget-friendly and conveniently located just 25 minutes away from the Veltins Arena in Gelsenkirchen, where England will kick off their campaign against Serbia on June 16.
Airbnb has seen a surge in listings targeting football fans who are desperate for affordable accommodation during the Euros. Some hosts are even offering garden sheds furnished with basic amenities for around £50 per night. One such listing is a wooden outhouse located just 20 minutes from the Frankfurt Arena, where England will face Denmark on June 20. This unique rental option comes with no hot water and features an “organic toilet bucket” – definitely not for the faint-hearted.
For those looking for a more adventurous stay, a nine square metre treehouse further north towards Berlin is available for £31 per night. However, be prepared for a rustic experience as the treehouse lacks heating and offers only an outdoor wash basin, compost toilet, and a bunk bed.
If you’re up for something truly unconventional, consider staying at a £10-a-night “hay hotel” on a farm between Frankfurt and Leipzig. The bed is made of dried grass, hay, and straw – an experience that promises to be both unique and budget-friendly. Just be aware of the roaming alpacas and ducks on the farm, and don’t forget to pack your earplugs to drown out the roosters crowing early in the morning.
For those willing to splurge on a more luxurious option, there is a sweet-themed apartment available in Gelsenkirchen, where England will face Serbia in the Group C opener. The apartment comes with a hefty price tag of £566 per night over the weekend of June 16, but offers the experience of cuddling cookie pillows while indulging in unlimited treats from a candy cart.
With a range of affordable and unconventional accommodation options available, England fans have the opportunity to make their Euro 2020 experience truly memorable. Whether you choose to stay in a drab bunker, a rustic treehouse, or a sweet-themed apartment, these unique listings are sure to add a touch of excitement to your football-filled adventure. So don’t miss out on this chance to stay close to the action without breaking the bank!
