What are Capsule Hotels?

A capsule hotel refers to an ultra-compact and budget-friendly accommodation where people sleep in pods instead of rooms. This concept started from Japan but has recently become popular to be used in many locations worldwide, including India. Each capsule or pod contains everything a person might need in a hotel room but provided on a much smaller scale to maximize space usage. The main target groups of these capsule hotels are the business traveler and budget-conscious tourist, as well as frequent commuters who require a quick, affordable place for rest.

The service in the post-pandemic recovery has forced this industry to rethink their service models and can just be the thing going around in this changing market trend. Furthermore, pandemic has amplified demand for private-yet-affordable accommodations, that makes capsule hotels the timely innovation.
