This may look like some ordinary, run-of-the-mill factory, but there's some modern day magic going on here. Row after row of metal is dipped into a special liquid called copper anode slime, a waste product that is made during the production and smelting of copper, and that's when the unbelievable starts to happen. Just like in the olden days of the alchemists, these industrialists are turning base metals into silver.
Welcome to the Good Hotel, a massive floating hotel moored out on the docks of Amsterdam, capital of the Netherlands. This former floating prison was converted to a hotel by Dutch entrepreneurs, but its much more than a floating accomodation. The management are preparing to try out the newest feature of Good Hotel - they plan to tow it out into the sea and use a special barge to take it all the way across the English Channel to London. Crews working on the Amsterdam docks are preparing the 144-room, 17.6 million pound hotel for the long and unprecedented journey across the channel to the capital of the United Kingdom, where it will arrive to serve its guests at London's Royal Docks. How do feel about staying at a floating hotel?
