ninehours is a company that specializes in providing a luxurious, functional and cheap hotel experience in the form of capsule hotels. Designed with minimalist and simplistic facilities, the idea and philosophy of a capsule hotel is to offer guests the bare essentials of what qualifies as a hotel stay.

“What features are required for overnight stays in urban hotels? Resetting your day, from one day to the next, needs three basic actions: take a shower, sleep, and get yourself dressed,” said ninehours in a statement. With the concept of providing a space that enables 1 hour for showing, 7 hours of sleeping, and 1 hour for rest, ninehours offers a “simple urban stay unlike any other in the world.”

Though the architecture and the layout of the capsule hotels differ depending on location, ninehours states that each branch offers the same consistent service and facility. According to ninehours, there are currently 55 branches located throughout Japan.
