ELE CABIN SHINJUKU KABUKICHO, Tokyo

The hotel provides lockers in the basement for storing valuables, with each locker containing a free towel, toothbrush, comb, razor, and indoor slippers. Shared bathroom facilities on separate floors include showers with good water pressure and free toiletries, plus hairdryers and makeup tables. The building has 24-hour security with CCTV outside the property, fire extinguishers, and smoke alarms for a safe stay.

Each custom-built capsule bed is wider than a standard single bed and includes a foldable writing desk, adjustable brightness light, multiple outlets, and an air flow control. The capsule has a pull-up cupboard and a window with a blind for privacy, and the bed construction is sturdy so it does not wobble when others climb. Separate male and female cabin floors ensure security and quiet, and the rooms have tatami lounge areas for luggage storage.
