Traveling Feet

When you travel, your accommodations should be as
interesting as the rest of your trip. Today’s post is about
some of the world’s most unusual places to stay.

Capsule hotels became popular years ago in Japan,
especially among businessmen who worked late and
couldn’t catch the last train home. Nine Hours is a modern
capsule hotel with a simple, clean design. Each tiny boxlike
room for sleeping has a special alarm clock that wakes
guests up with light, not noise. The hotel is right in the
center of Kyoto, so it’s a quick walk to shops, buses, and
subways. Capsule hotels are also good for people who can’t
afford expensive hotel rates.
