Capsule hotel in Piccadilly Circus, 200 m from the Prince of Wales Theatre

Capsules & Rooms

Each capsule, named a Cocoon, offers a private sleeping space with a dimmable light, a personal fan, and both USB-A and USB-C outlets. Guests can slide the door shut from inside for privacy and lock it with their own padlock when leaving. A female-only floor is available, and the capsules are stacked in three tiers with stair-like steps for access to the top berths.

Location

The hotel sits directly in Piccadilly Circus, 200 metres from the Prince of Wales Theatre and 200 metres from the Sondheim Theatre. Guests can walk to Leicester Square Underground Station, Trafalgar Square, and the National Gallery within 600-700 metres. London City Airport is 15 km away, and the entrance is opposite the Lindt store near The BOX.

Safety & Security

A 24-hour front desk and security guards at the entrance check key cards to keep out unauthorised visitors. The building is monitored by CCTV in common areas and outside, with smoke alarms and fire extinguishers on every floor. Each floor is accessed only by key card, and the capsules lock from the inside with a latch for overnight safety.

Facilities & Services

The hotel provides luggage storage, air conditioning, and soundproof rooms throughout. Free WiFi is available, and a lift serves all floors. Vending machines in the foyer sell padlocks, snacks, and other travel essentials for guests who arrive unprepared.

Guest Experience

Reviews highlight the clean capsules and comfortable mattresses, with many guests surprised by the quiet atmosphere despite the central location. The shared bathrooms are cleaned frequently, and shower gel is provided in the cubicles. Self-check-in via iPads keeps the process quick, and the hotel is non-smoking throughout.

Highlights

“The capsule concept shines here, especially for solo female travelers who value both budget and location. Pods offer surprising comfort and quiet, and the cleanliness is a definite plus. I think the attentive staff and sense of security make this a smart choice in a busy city.”

adequate central stay

excellent location spacious capsule comfortable interior hot capsule limited space dirty toilets
the location is excellent, just a short walk from the tube. the capsule is more spacious than i expected. it offered a comfortable interior with everything i needed for a good rest.
The capsule was too hot for me, even with the fan on. i had to put my clothes over the bed. (it was very inconvenient). the shower was not great. Most of the toilets were not very clean.

admirable cocoon experience

convenient location efficient check-in security measures
the location impressed me. it is convenient for exploring. check-in was efficient and the staff was helpful. i felt secure with the security measures in place, especially since it is a high tourist area.
the absence of a towel without an extra charge was a bit inconvenient. i wish the facility provided that basic amenity without additional cost.

Adequate Sleeping Pod. Just barely.

warm temperature inadequate ventilation
Location was good, I suppose, near transportation.
The room's temperature was a real problem. It was too warm inside my sleeping pod. The ventilation fan didn't seem to do enough to help with the heat and it became difficult to sleep well.
