Capsule hotels are growing tourist attractions in more populated metropolitan areas such as Tokyo, Sapporo, and Hamamatsu. They are good for Japanese businessmen and women who either missed their train home or are just really tired and don’t want to wait for another one, or even just to get away for a night. Capsule Hotels are a good and cheap alternative to booking a regular hotel room and there is isn’t a lot of used up space making it easy to fit a lot of people in one hallway and also leading to cheaper prices due to smaller ‘rooms’. This is also a very new experience for tourists and Japanese people because there hasn’t been many places have opened as Capsule Hotels until recently. There are also some Capsule Hotels that have accommodations such as: lounges, and bath houses including: saunas, and other larger baths (One for each gender).
