The defining feature of capsule hotels is the sleeping pod. These are small, private capsules designed for one person, with just enough space for a bed, minimal furniture, and essential tech features. They are typically stackable, allowing the hotel to accommodate many guests in a small area.
Each capsule often features modern technology, such as smart lighting, climate control (adjustable air conditioning and heating), USB charging ports, and sometimes even touch-screen controls for various functions like lighting and entertainment.
While capsule hotels are known for their compact spaces, they also prioritize privacy. Each capsule is usually enclosed with a curtain or sliding door to provide guests with a sense of personal space, shielding them from the activity in the rest of the hotel.
In addition to the capsules, capsule hotels often feature shared spaces such as lounges, kitchens, showers, and bathrooms. These areas are designed to promote social interaction and make the most of the limited private space in the capsules.
