Built from recycled shipping containers, these simply amazing, durable, iron boxes were once used to ship just about anything imaginable around the globe by land and sea. Now, with a new lease on life, FLOPHOUZE has transformed these containers into unique, comfortable, cozy living spaces. Also available next to Flophouze is our Mid-Century Style Loft - Beach Houze. Outside, each Houze has its own hammock, fire pit and chairs. Inside, the kitchenette features a sink, microwave, mini fridge, tea kettle and Chemex coffee maker for the morning get up an goers! The interiors are cladded with sustainably harvested wood from our farm in upstate New York and reclaimed lumber from a distillery in Kentucky. The windows were salvaged from a school in Philadelphia that was slated for demolition, and provide tons of natural light. On a playful note, we installed kitchen cabinet bases from an FDA laboratory in Brooklyn, and old bowling alley floors from Texas to complete the countertops! Every detail has been carefully crafted to ensure that your stay is a memorable one. Come. Stay. You won't want to leave.
Owner, Operator and mastermind behind Flophouze-an eco-chic shipping container hotel.
Flophouze is located on an old farm-to-market country road only 5 miles from the infamous Round Top Square. Be right up in the action with Round Top Antiques Fair, one of the largest and best antiques shows in the nation. Not bad for a Texas town with a population of 90. The original Round Top Antiques Fair is held twice per year, the first full weekend in October and again in April. Being in Round Top is almost like taking a step back in time when things were slower and life was a little simpler. When the fair is not in season, many antique stores stay open year round. Round Top is and always will be a breath of fresh air away from the busy city. It truly is a magical place
