What a Japanese Capsule Hotel is Really Like | Osaka Japan

First Cabin is a new concept that combines the idea of a capsule hotel with much more comfortable accommodations and facilities. This one was located in Namba, the best area to stay in Osaka Japan. The room cost me ¥3500 (US$32) per night.

    Everything is According to the situation of their country. Because There's so often tsunami and high rating earthquakes then upon that there is a rainfall like monsoon which is almost for 12 months. So not good to build so big structures for businesses like this. Imagine getting hit by earthquake or tsunami every year. Everytime you constantly losing your beautiful hotels and restaurants. everything in minutes. Without any kind of notice or little mercy.

    two arrows the main problem is going to be rule-following these capsule hotels and micro-accomodations works because of the customers' obedience to the rules of “no disturbances” but in all honesty, stranded people would be less probable in keeping quiet in a space like this people whos been stranded for a long while sure since theyre already tired but there are those with rowdy kids, entitled parents, and just downright disrespectful people arent gonna keep the serenity of the vicinity these things work in japan due to their rule abiding demeanor and respect with those around them

    @@theCosmicQueen not really, while i agree its not a heaven or even really a paradise i'd say its not that bad, though in the context of capsule hotels it does depend a lot on your personal preference capsule hotels while they are small i will say they aren't really going to get overcrowded persay since they can't crowd it like a train or bus, the worst case is all the capsules get filled up and even then one still gets the space one paid for (maybe the amenities might have more of a waiting time and the lounge might be fuller but most people just use these places to sleep so even when full not too many people are going to be walking around or making noise, japanese people are usually good at being respectful about that) now they are small which is understandably undesirable to many and its okay if you don't like its smallness (if you don't like it nobody is going to make you use it, they do still have regular hotels) but on the contrary side of the coin, there are actually quite a few people including myself that actually like small spaces (and in some cases even prefer small over large), so to me, these kinds of small capsules just look cozy and the price is quite cheap with what looks like decent enough amenities and for privacy it depends, but for me i don't think i'd mind, hypothetically if i were at one i'd probably just be there to sleep and i wouldn't really be doing anything funny that'd make me feel like i need full privacy, at the minimum they give a curtain which gives visual privacy and thats enough for me, the sound of people quietly walking by isn't an issue for me (and even without the door its not worse than hearing people talk and stomp full volume down the hallway in western hotels) and for some i've heard its even comforting to not have full audible isolation in a place like this And since i wrote so much i guess i should clarify, i'm not trying to say you're wrong for not liking the design of capsule hotels, i understand that, i just kinda want to point out that those things aren't an issue for everyone, there are types of people who don't mind it and can even prefer aspects of it, its just not an objective thing, some like it, some dislike it, and there is nothing saying you have to use it if you don't (you don't even have to go to japan if its designs are not to your taste, you can stay where you are comfortable, the west and the east have different ways of doing things which appeal to different people and thats fine) Also with regards to the fukushima daiichi reactor, i did some research and contrary to what some people think its not actually that dangerous at all. its been 10 years most of it is either contained or cleaned to a safe level, and anything that has been released in the past 5 years isn't likely to have any real impact (even the disaster itself when it happened didn't harm much for the size of the area affected, few people had any real injury directly attributable to the nuclear fallout, most deaths were ironically linked to the evacuation) and most of its impact now is just the cost to continue cleaning up the exclusion zone and eventually dismantle the remains of the reactor, and thats not really something within our scope to worry about Any of the claims i could find that the fukushima reactor is supposedly spewing out dangerous levels of radiation or that its causing mutations in sea life are just hoxes and fear mongering, most of the "examples" i could find people using for the claims are using images from other completely unrelated things taken out of context or are just plain false (a few of the claims i found even use images taken before the disaster even happened, and a supposed map i could find of its "radiation" spread across the ocean was actually a map of where the tsunami caused by the 2011 earthquake propagated and in fact had nothing at all to do with fukushima or radiation) So in short, fukushima isn't anything worth worrying about, there are far better things to be concerned about (both in and out of japan)

    First Cabin is my favourite chain for capsule hotels. They're clean, and has more amenities than your usual capsule hotel or even your average motel. Also, most capsule hotels require you to check out each morning and give you a different capsule each night, even if you've booked to stay for more than one night. But First Cabin lets you keep the same capsule/cabin for the duration of your stay. P.S. You got yours for a steal. It usually costs more than that (especially for a first class cabin) but I think they're worth the extra cost.

    I stayed in First Cabin Tsukiji, Tokyo back in October 2019. If you're looking for a cheap lodging but have a slight claustrophobia like I do (and the notion of staying in a capsule makes you uncomfortable), I would highly recommend First Cabin. The only gripe I had was the bed and pillows. The bed I found was too hard for my soft, old lady body. Same thing for the pillows. This, however, was easily solved by piling up two or three blankets on the bed. The staff kindly let me keep the extra blankets on my bed for my entire stay there (3 nights) without any charges.

Tbh, although it seems clean, safe, women only floors and everything, but you can’t lock the cabins and that made me very insecure... it was very quiet tho, because you can’t really talk which was great when you needed to sleep. Their showers and bathrooms were fantastic. If you need to talk with your friends, you gotta head down to the lodge for that, and even at the lodge it is quiet. We caught up with a promotion and I think we were only charged with about $35 USD per night, which was extremely cheap. It is a good alternative stay method other than airbnb
