Girls in a Capsule

Capsule hotels are hotels that provide very small rooms for people who just need a place to crash for the night. Maybe because they missed last train, got too drunk, on a tight budget while stopping over in a town or like me and so many other foreigners because it seems uniquely Japanese.

It isn't that hard to find a capsule hotel in Tokyo especially in areas where there are a lots of bars and night clubs. However most capsule hotels are for men and it is very difficult to find any for women.

Here is a list of capsule hotels in Tokyo that women can stay at.

If you really want to stay the night in one I recommend a reservation just to ensure that you get a capsule. They can fill up especially when places close and the train stops for the night.

Truckguy60- Part 2

One option that might be worth considering though is train stations do offer large lockers big enough for luggage at very reasonable daily and weekly rates. If you would really like to stay at a capsule.

Also note that all capsules are different. There might be plenty out there that do offer luggage storage and I am just unaware of it. Since I am a woman not many capsule hotels will permit me to stay. So my experiences are extremely limited.

I hope this has helped!

Truckguy60- By design they are not meant to accommodate luggage. However when I stayed in this capsule hotel people simply left their luggage outside of their capsule. It is extremely safe to do that because it is unlikely that anyone will try to steel your things. Lockers are offered but not big enough for luggage. Not even a carry on and it is also not likely that the staff will hold your things for you either.

omg being claustrophobic is scares me just thinking about getting cramped in there

[MsTokyoRose]

@Color0fSoul I'm claustrophobic too but actually it was extremely spacious. It feels more like a very small room than a box.

[MsTokyoRose]

prinny- there is a a folding door and it has a lock on the inside so people can't peek in.

Xian- sorry this just the music that came with my video editor no really name to speak of

@MsTokyoRose All people above 60 should stay there for the rehearsal.

hmmm I think capsule hotels are a good idea, but they are not that cheap... Actually, there are normal hotel rooms a lot cheaper than a capsule.

wait do you have to shower in front on girls

I have been wondering about those capsule hotels. My question is: Do you have to fit your suitcase inside as well? It only looks big enough for a person. You'd be squashed if you had to fit yourself and your luggage in there. Do capsule hotels offer luggage lockers?

Wow those capsules are pretty big :O, the one I went to had more like the actually totally made of plastic kind and was about 40 cm high.

Did get free TV though :P plus gotto love eating a fried chicken menu at 3 AM made by the staff ^^
