If there was a place to work out in one of these bad boys, it would seem to be rather perfect for the business or solo traveler. The only thing missing is food which, in a dense urban setting, is never an issue. underpaidgenius: ckck: Click here to watch a video about Nine Hours, a new, beautifully designed capsule hotel in Kyoto, Japan. Capsule hotels have always fascinated me, but this is probably the first one I’ve seen where I’d really want to stay. It just seems very futuristic to sleep in a little pod, even if there’s no space travel or hypersleep involved. I quite like their minimalist design aesthetic as well (as seen above). It’s odd that capsule hotels is still such a Japanese thing. I can think of so many times where all you need is just a bed to sleep in (like at an airport), and you have to pay a ton of money for a whole room and amenities you won’t use. The closest I’ve come to something similar was staying at The Pod Hotel in New York City, which has tiny little rooms with shared bathrooms along with very fresh modern design, but even those rooms were big compared to the capsule hotels of Japan.
