Capsule hotels, first appeared in Japan, are becoming increasingly popular in Europe.
This new direction of tourist business on the Old Continent was first mastered in Milan and Warsaw, where mini-hotels with sleeping capsules originally appeared in airports.
Today, this type of accommodation is also available in the UK, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Russia and several other European countries.
In the near future, capsule hotels are planned to be opened in all major European cities.
Capsule hotels, rooms in which are small sleeping cells located on top of each other, appeared in Japan in the late 1970s.
Initially, they were designed mainly for the reception of white-collar (office workers, qualified professionals), who prefer to get a few hours of sleep near the place of work after a long party, not to get home.
Regular customers of capsule hotels were also late-sitting Japanese employees who missed the last train and decided not to spend money on a taxi.
Traditional sleeping capsule is a room height and width of 1.45 m, which has a bed width of 90 cm and a length of 2 m.
The capsule also has a safe for storing valuables, built-in bedside table and sockets for charging your phone and computer.
In the low tourist season, a night in a capsule hotel with breakfast will cost the traveler an average of 19 euros.
