Kisho Kurokawa designed the first capsule hotel, which opened its doors on February 1, 1979 in the Japanese city of Osaka. The price of this curious and peculiar room was 1,600 yen. Kurokawa thus revolutionized the concept of hotel accommodation, especially in cities where hotel occupancy density is very high. Capsule hotels in Japan
What is actually a capsule hotel? Accommodation is designed to save space. The rooms with no more than 2.10 meters long, and have a height and a width of about 1 meter. In one room there may be hundreds of capsules, each equipped with its own light, your alarm clock and a television. No system of closure, only a curtain that prevents the client being seen and seeing others.
In this micro space is impossible to keep the luggage, so the Capsule Hotel has rooms in which to store the suitcases. The same applies to the bathrooms, there is no room ensuite, all guests have to make use of shared toilets and showers. They also have saunas.
Capsule hotels Japan Dadas Capsule Hotel conditions (which are proliferating in Tokyo), it is best if you go to host one of them, carry some earplugs. You can hear all the snoring and notice the movements of customers who sleep in the beds above or on the sides. And of course, if you're afraid of enclosed spaces or feel claustrophobic, do not ever make a reservation at this fun hotel.
The concept is designed for entrepreneurs, as are the people who travel and require more than one bed at a cheap price, regardless of the facilities too (do not enjoy too much of them.) But there are travelers who want to discover something different and do not hesitate to spend the night at the Capsule Hotel.
