There is no doubt it’s a room with a view – but how would you like to be surrounded by sharks as you sleep?
A special underwater bedroom, sitting in three million litres of water, has been created at the Paris Aquarium.
A few lucky contest winners will get the chance to stay in April before it becomes a research facility.

The room with a difference is submerged in a 10-metre-deep aquarium
with just a see-through wall separating guests from 35 sharks. Two people can stay, with a round-shaped bed occupying most of the space.

“Sharks are really, really misunderstood… People need to understand that sharks are not dangerous, there are only dangerous behaviours with sharks,” he said.
