Looking for a capsule hotel?

Developed in Japan, these cheap 'pod' hotels are a novelty for any traveller. With rows of small single bed enclosed capsules, accommodation is basic and intended to be overnight. There is separate storage for luggage and gender-separate communal bathrooms — some capsule hotels also have a sentō, a Japanese bath house, often for male guests only.

    Nice and simple Japanese style accomodation. The futon was comparatively soft thanks to having two layers. Friendly staff and a small kitchen to make tea. Very nice for a short stay.

    The staff was amazing. Very friendly, helpfull, just great. The breakfast was very nice with the choice of Japanese or Western. Both changed every day so very nice to try the Japanese version. The room was very Japanese and a nice change from western style. Slept on the floor but suprizingly comfy. Onsen very nice and warm.

    3 mins walk from JR Nara station, and located at the quiet side of the station. Room was spacious for a twin room, the view was good. Staff was friendly and helpful. Like the white bath towel, soft and comfy. Laundromat was a convenient facility.

    The accommodation is located above a restaurant, and it was wonderful having the entire place to myself! It reminds me of a retro Japanese home. Really comfortable place to stay in, and the host is a lovely and friendly person. She was very accommodating to my plans and even made breakfast and dinner for me for a small fee. Having a free washing machine to use was also super convenient!

    A place combing traditional with modern elements. No matter if single (travel) or with companion(s), all find suitable 'space'. Utmost clean, well organized, convenient. Host welcoming (friendly), dedicated. Breakfast is delicious (to be ordered in advance, with a minimal fee). For budget travelers, this place is the right choice!

    Loved the traditional Japanese Inn experience. The bathhouse was great and had the inside or outside baths. The staff made up our room while we were out which we were not expecting, which was great! Very convenient location to everything.The breakfast staff were very friendly and accommodating.

    Excellent Japanese breakfast and convenient location near Todaiji. Rooftop lounge is great for sunset views of Todaiji. Walking distance to most of the major sights. Friendly helpful staff and a newly renovated room with the very latest Bluetooth Toto. Bath is a bit small and only warm but still nice.

    Very convenient location! We had a comfortable stay in a clean and relaxed environment. The staff were warm and friendly, and engaged us in English very well. It was nice to exchange Japanese greetings every morning and every time we returned home. ^^ The kitchen was also well-equipped and kept very clean. The pop-up coffee shop was a nice touch too! Thank you for the welcoming atmosphere and warm memories!
