Energy-efficient LEAPrus 3912 hotel isn't for the faint-hearted

Energy-efficient LEAPrus 3912 hotel isn't for the faint-hearted: "Italian architects LEAPfactory recently constructed a new energy-efficient hotel on the southern glacier of Mount Elbrus, in Russia's Caucasus mountain range. Generally considered the highest peak in Europe, Mount Elbrus has a summit of 5,642 m (18,510 ft). The hotel in question is located 3,912 m (12,834 ft) above sea level, hence its name: LEAPrus 3912."
