PARIS - The house rules are clear: No swimming at night, keep your head and feet in the bedroom at all times, and avoid watching "Jaws" beforehand. It might put you off the sharks circling your bed.

A room with a very special view -- 35 of the much feared creatures -- is up for grabs at the Paris Aquarium for those looking for a night's sleep with a difference.

Submerged in a 10-meter-(33-foot)-deep aquarium with just a see-through wall separating guests from the sharks swimming in 3 million litres of water, the cylinder-shaped room for two, with a round-shaped bed occupying most of the space, is not for the faint-hearted.
