Rarely do you hear someone say, “You know what the world has too much of? Pandas.”
Not only would that statement be categorically false—in 2004, there were only 1,600 giant pandas left in the wild!—but even if there was an overabundance, who would complain? Pandas are adorable! Until now…
Welcome to China’s Panda Inn, a panda-themed hotel set to open next month that not only boasts panda decor but a very involved panda-costumed staff that will do everything from keep you company during tea time to playing the Jack to your Rose in the hotel’s Titanic-themed room.
There’s a Sailor Moon-themed room as well:
The Inn is located at the foot of Emei Mountain and isn’t far from panda reserves:

How could no one think of this completely non-terrifying idea sooner?
