Capsule Inn, Shibuya
Capsule Inns or hotels are well known in Japan for providing a place to stay the night at low cost, without taking up a lot of space. I stayed at one recently and thoroughly enjoyed my time. If you have never tried one I encourage you to give it a go.
All of the capsules lined up. I was on the top floor and had to climb up the ladder.
You can see it is very compact.
My headphone set for the tv and radio.
Curtain closed ready for bed. It really was quiet and cozy.
Instructions on how to use the capsule.
Here is my TV inside the cubicle.
A better view of how narrow the capsule is. It actually was very comfortable and not at all claustrophobic.
Bathroom faciities.
Accesories at the ready.
The view of Shibuya from the top.

Or was that Rocker room? I couldn't find any of the band members, but I think there were some hard rockers around.
If anyone wants to try it out, here is the name and number.

It doesn’t seem bad at all. How much was your stay there?
Thought about these places but there are better alternatives for the same price or lower where you get an actual room. I stayed at a place called Aizuya Inn where you get your own small room.
I’m 191 cm tall. I wonder if I could fit in the capsule?
Thx – great to see inside a capsule hotel. Actually looks a reasonable place to stay for a quick trip with no family. Any idea of costs and opening hours? Normal hotels seem to check-in at 2pm and out by 10am.
I much prefer that to the pod hotel I stayed in in London. We paid for a cabin to ourselves and to be honest, it was sort of an awful compromise between a real hotel room and one of these capsules. Much better to be out in communal areas most of the time, and only get in your capsule to basically fall asleep.
Though in the pod hotel’s defense, the rainforest shower and overall facilities were excellent. But I would prefer to use them out in the open like this. Thank you for the photos as I’ve never been able to see a realistic view inside these!
Here’s a link to a video of a capsule hotel:
