A capsule hotel is a unique style of accommodation in Japan, originating from the creative spirit of the Japanese mind.
A typical capsule hotel has two major sections:a public space including bathing and smoking area, and the other is a private space where the sleeping room (capsules) are arranged.The actual sleeping room is a capsule unit made of strong plastic and designed in the image of a jet airplane's cockpit(驾驶舱),about 2 m by 1 m by 1.25 m.In the capsule unit, all the required things are provided:TV, radio, alarm clock, adjustable lighting… almost everything is provided! Every device is within your reach and you can control everything in a sleeping position.
The business people working hard until after midnight and missing their train, and all the people coming to Tokyo on a short business trip , or holiday , young and old, men and women, a wide range of people stay at capsule hotels in Tokyo.
Everybody that travels to Japan should experience this unique accommodation, one of the most unique accommodations in the world, at least once!
