Unusual Hotels in Nose

Nine Hours Kyoto provides an ultra-minimalist, futuristic take on the capsule hotel. Designed around a precise concept—1 hour to shower, 7 hours to sleep, 1 hour to get ready—it rethinks overnight stays as a streamlined, time-efficient experience. Guests sleep in sleek, glowing pods arranged in sci-fi-like corridors, with ambient lighting and minimalist interiors that feel more like a sleep lab than a hotel. It’s a striking blend of design, function, and philosophy that turns a simple night’s rest into a concept-driven ritual.

New Japan Capsule Hotel Cabana is the very first capsule hotel in the world, as it opened in 1979. It offers accommodation in capsules for male guests only and a futuristic design.

Considered as a landmark for the port area of Kobe, this hotel boasts a unique architectural design, since its shape resembles a white wave rising up from the ocean.
