Tulsa Creative Network
About
Tulsa Creative Network is a small editorial project with one job: to describe hotels that are unusual enough to be worth describing, and to do it in readable prose rather than in bullet points and scores.
The four categories
We settled on four: art hotels, capsule hotels, casino hotels and ice hotels. They are not a ranking and they are not a tour. Each one represents a different reason a building ends up being interesting — a collection, a constraint, an entertainment complex, a season. Four hotels sit in each category, and the site is complete at sixteen rather than trying to be a directory of everything.
The properties are spread across Europe, Asia and North America. We do not write from one country’s point of view and we have no home market; a reader in any of those places should find the entries equally useful.
How entries are written
Every write-up is prose. We describe the setting, the building, what distinguishes the hotel and what a stay there is broadly like. We deliberately avoid precise figures — room counts, prices, square metres, opening times — because those change and a stale number is worse than none.
We do not run reviews, star ratings or user scores, and we do not reproduce anyone else’s. Nothing on the site is sponsored and no hotel pays to be listed or to be described in a particular way.
Corrections
Hotels change hands, renovate, close for a season and reopen with a different idea of themselves. If an entry has fallen out of date, or if you think a description misses what the place is actually like, we would rather hear it than not. The contact page explains how.
