9 Hours in Kyoto

While capsule hotels are not new in Japan, 9 h (nainawasu) adds a new element to the Japanese approach to minimal hotels. The hotel is designed by Fumie Shibata of design studio s, and offers luxury in a minimum living space. It looks absolutely amazing and represents a revolution in the capsule concept.

The name of the hotel is a simple formula. Based on the philosophy of the owners, at its most basic level a hotel should provide: 1 hour to shower, 7 hours for sleep, and one hour for rest. In total, 9 hours.

9 Hours in Kyoto An experience interesting to try out.
