Shanghai First Capsule Hotel Copycat of Japan Idea

[Frank Fire]

In Japan Tokyo, where land is limited and every inch of space is a fortune to own, a hotel room can cost a bomb to stay overnight. So the Japanese came up with an idea of just a 2×1 meter size bedroom for rental for people who just need a place to sleep and nothing more.

A Chinese citizen went to work as a administrative task at one of Japan capsule hotel to learn and spy on the operation heads home to Shanghai to build China first’s capsule hotel. A night at one of this room will cost you $13.3 but charges are vary and goes by the hours block

It has a LCD TV and internet connection but if a visitor wishes to use the service they are charged for it. The base one hour charge is $4.2 and goes all the way up to a capped $13.3 per day. The construction of the room are unique because it has to comply with safety requirement. All capsule and the mattress are fire resistant material in case of a fire emergency.


So the next time any traveler who are interested to travel to Shanghai with a tight budget, you have an option to stay at one of this capsule hotel.

I have a chinese guy living in my cupboard. He cries at night and begs me to tell his family that he's still alive.
