IF YOU’VE ever wanted to stay inside the world’s biggest chicken – this is your chance.
A hotel resort in the Philippines has built a giant building shaped like a chicken and now travellers can come home to roost.

It was recently given the Guinness World Record title for being the largest chicken shaped building, standing at 114ft[/caption]
The giant six-storey chicken tower stands at 114 ft and has 15 rooms, all equipped with air-conditioning.
There is a catch though, the rooms are windowless as it would ruin the effect of the chicken’s feathers.
The chicken hotel isn’t the only large animal on the resort which boasts several pools and a theme park, it joins a large gorilla hotel and a dinosaur hotel as well.
The fowl-inspired building is located at the hills of the Campuestohan Highland Resort on the island of Negros Occidental and was recently awarded the Guinness World Record title for being the largest building in the shape of a chicken on September 8.
The owner of the resort, Ricardo Cano Gwapo Tan, told CNN he wanted to “leave a big legacy” behind.
The 70-year-old said he wanted to create something with a “wow factor” and dedicated the building to the game fowl industry.
He said: “The Philippines now has an iconic building that is a source of legacy, pride and honour.”
And with people flocking in to see the giant bird, Tan said the rooster-shaped hotel is full booked until 2025.
According to the Campuestohan Highland Resort Facebook page, a room for four people costs £60 per night, while larger groups of seven will cost approximately £93 per night.
However, getting to the resort might be a little bit difficult.
Travellers will need to make their way from Manilla or Cebu to the Bacolod-Silay International Airport in Negros Occidental.
From the airport, it’s about a 17-mile drive across farmland and an uphill ascent.
Campuestohan Highland Resort isn’t the only unusual hotel, a quirky hotel in Hong Kong looks like Noah’s Ark.
Noah’s Ark Hotel and Resort can be found on the island of Ma Wan, next to the world-famous Tsing Ma Bridge.
The hotel appears as a vessel washed up on shore, extending onto the golden sands and shimmering waters of Tung Wan Beach.
Inside, guests can expect a choice of spacious deluxe double, twin or themed family rooms with amenities such as a separate shower and bathroom and queen size beds.
There are seven themed rooms, one of which is British themed – expect a union jack bedspread and rug, a model of a Royal Mail letterbox, and a room full of cuddly teddy bears.
Other themes include ‘Mushroom Forest’, with mushroom toys and a toadstool tent.
Its two newest themed rooms are ‘Interstellar Voyage’, with rockets, planets and astronauts, and ‘Flying Adventure’, with planes and suitcases.
During their stay, guests can marvel at the resort’s Ark Expo and 4D theatre, where they can experience the flood of the ancient ark firsthand and discover the largest meteorite display in Hong Kong.
There’s also dinosaurs and several pools located at the resort[/caption]
