Why the hustle and bustle of the city when you can go on a holiday underwater. When this Dubai hotel is ready, you'll be greeted with underwater wildlife 200 feet below the surface.

Deep Ocean Technology just approved a design for the Water Discus Hotel, which would anchor half of the hotel 21 stories underwater, with the other half peeking out above the water.

inhabitat points out, there had previously been plans for another underwater hotel in Dubai before that idea fizzled out, and until construction begins, nothing is ever set in stone.
