Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Breakfast may not impress — One guest gave a low rating specifically because the included breakfast was not up to par. If you value a hearty morning meal, you might want to eat elsewhere.
  • Shared capsule experience — As a capsule hotel, you'll be sleeping in a semi-private pod rather than a full room. Noise from other guests is possible despite the sound-blocking hatch.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not allow pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if traveling with an animal.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 23:59. If you arrive late at night, you may miss the window.
