In urban areas of Japan such as Tokyo and Kyoto, the cramped and densely populated environment has inspired creative solutions for making the most of space, and capsule hotels are one of the most unique inventions. The 9h ninehours capsule hotel can be described as the pinnacle of minimalist fashion. Stepping into the hotel gives you the illusion of being in a space scene, making it one of Japan’s currently most popular capsule hotels. Designed in 2009 by the Japanese design team Studio S, 9h ninehours is located in Kyoto, Narita, Sendai, and North Shinjuku. With a space theme as its main concept, it uses black-and-white tones to convey a cold and serene cosmic atmosphere. The design is extremely simple and streamlined without overly complicated elements. When you visit Japan for your next trip, why not experience an out-of-this-world stay?
