Japan's Cutest WOMEN-ONLY Capsule Hotel🌷 | Akihabara Bay Hotel

Looks like STH out of a black mirror episode. Personally when I travel alone, I chose youth hostels and make friends. This is a very lonely experience. Maybe great if you're super tired and don't want to interract..

@@kro0018 or if you are on a budget! i personally think this is great! short vacation time means you willl spend most of the time outside your hotel, so just a place to shower and sleep for cheap sounds great! and this place is super cute too!

@@kro0018 some women may also feel uncomfortable being in a mixed gender accommodation because of trauma. This is a good option for women like myself who would feel more comfortable being in a women’s only accommodation. Plus it’s fairly cheap too

@@kro0018 That's just the first impression. I've stayed at quite a few capsule hotels all around Japan and if there are people around, you can always find someone to have a nice conversation with. But it's also cheap and extremely clean which is not what I've experienced from youth hostels.

@@elenalizabeth if you love gender segregation so much why don’t you go to a Muslim country? Go to Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia or something tell me if you like it you will be scared all the time actually 🙄😑

Thank you for your comments☺️! You are right.

@@kiahmadison8541 No, it's not sexist, becuase men aren't phisically in danger against women, normal hotels are already safe for them.

@@kiahmadison8541 nice troll bait. Now enjoy the video.

@@kiahmadison8541 The dividing is not sexism, but the dividing is necessary for some women to feel safe and also to be safe. The dividing is the response to sexism, not the sexism itself.
Or are you saying that certain things are sexism that are supposed to bring the sexes closer together (meaning have the same rights) like laws, for example, that if there’s a leadership position and two candidates, a man and a woman, have the same qualifications, that the woman has to be choosen, that’s for the same reason, because the last thousand of years was the other way around that in such a case the man was always taken and even today men are still often preffered, when both people are able to do the same thing or the woman even more, so nowadays there are still almost only men in the top floor. These laws and a women-only hotel, for example, are meant to make our world less sexist, not more.

@@odil2476 Perhaps teach men not to attack women not teach women to behave in a fearful way. The single gender hotel reinforces this. Yes it's not an ideal world but it causes division . As I said there is security in most capsule hotels.You are more likely to be attacked on a train. As far as the statement about two people having the same qualifications there is a simple solution. Base your decision on personality and not gender. Yes it would be great if there were more women in top positions but not if everybody hates them or they do a terrible job while they have their position. Very few people liked Margaret Thatcher once she was voted in and she caused strikes and chaos.

We have women-only train cars in our local trains here in Mumbai, India. It definitely makes women feel a lot more safe and comfortable while commuting.

@@chaos.n.cosmos that sounds so nice 😭

There are a lot of women only facilities in many Muslim countries and particularly where I live!

sadly I think a lot of people would make issue of it, not to say just men (but mostly men) like WHY do they get an only women's hotel/why not a mens, why do they need one are you saying we're dangerous, ect. ect. -- though I live in america and believe that'd go down as such but I truly wish :(

@@jellychu1126 I feel like it would be more of a problem with the lgbtq community

Surely you understand that you CANNOT have this in America?

Hi, I have many Japan travel videos on my channel! Check it out!

@@paulb2092 Why not? (I'm not from America)

@@jessy3612 Because of 'biologically males' who go into girls only rooms because they identify as women...

@@paulb2092 why not ? There are male and women spa so I don’t see the issue in having this

Exactly! The men in the comments are pissing me off, smh 🤦‍♀️

That’s terrifying. :( I wish more stuff like this existed since for the time being women still have real reason to feel afraid and preyed upon

Yes. I feel you.

Many years ago in North Italy a serial killer travelled by train and killed several women, murdering them into the toilet. His name is still famous, donato bilancia

@@margaritaresta6390 cool story but he also killed men

Yes, capsule hotels were originally created for busy workers. These days, people stay for a variety of purposes, but most capsule hotels in Japan are still exclusively for men. Thank you!☺️🌸✨

so its ok for women to have places only for themselves, but men arent allowed

The beginning is happening

@@its_time_to_travel OMG so cute 😂😂😂😂

@@yodenheim647 pathetic mxles trying to play victims of society now ?

Thank you for your nice comment🥺 I hope there will be more hotels like this all over the world.

How was your experience going with a friend? Asking since I'd like to go with a friend but it seems like a bit of an individualistic experience since you'd be in separate capsules and stuff

@@abril3873 when planning our trip to Japan, my friend knew that I really wanted the experience of staying in a capsule hotel so she was totally fine with it. I was in the top capsule and she was in the one below me so we still felt connected weirdly enough and once in our capsule ( which was only to sleep) we could still text each other. On our trip we made sure to do experiences that we both wanted to experience and communicated our needs and wants and planned everything around that. Plus it was only for 2 nights on a 2 week trip.

@@LilithsCosmicLounge Yes, we are still friends. We have traveled to other places together too. We most definitely would do so again in the future. We were actually going again in April 2020 but due to the pandemic and lockdown that did not happen. When we are able to we will be travelling together again. It is a very great thing to find a person whom you can travel with and stay such good friends. I also would be very, very comfortable going to Japan on my own and stay in this capsule hotel again.

Do women travel alone regularly in your country?

@@user-mi6xo8ke2n within the country yes but outside no

Starting to wish I was arab rn ngl

@@riorio745 This is called Capsule Hotel, it’s another category in Japan. We have regular Hotel. They’re not the same. We don’t have hostels as it’s very strange to share a room with strangers and no one wants to share a room with strangers like a dorm outside of schools. Adults don’t want to share a room with strangers. Way too strange for most Japanese.

@@rosymoon8144 how? Then what about all these Arab female tourists I saw while I was abroad?

Okay, that’s just creepy and fucked up. Imagine just chilling and you see a bunch of guys looking through the window, waiting for you or any women to come out. Sounds like a horror story.

@- Astor -
Exactly, like just get a sex doll then. Stop using women for your entertainment for crying out loud!

Same thing happened with a women's only train car in Japan. A little girl was pulled from the train and taken to an alleyway and assaulted.

@@bellebonebag8096 that is horrible.. What a terrible world we live in, and people really have the audacity to ask me why I'm scared of men and people over all?

@@midnightlime5174 Some people cope with the reality of our world, by ignoring it.

Thank you for watching☺️ I agree.

@@canaryinacoalmine7267 Thanks for your comment! We also reviewed men-only capsule hotels☺️

@@canaryinacoalmine7267 Men Only hotels do exist, especially in popular destinations for gay male tourists like Miami or Palm Springs.

@@canaryinacoalmine7267 go comment that shit on a video about men only hotels

@@canaryinacoalmine7267 I do understand, but you got your equality. Men have men only hotels, & women have women only hotels. Everything is equal and everyone is happy.

Thank you for watching!!🥰

It should be a standard for all hotels

@@myy_.m3lody most men don’t like pink, just go ask around thus it’s standard for women

@@bitmes2910 i think they mean the cleanliness, not the colors...

@@bitmes2910 Women’s only capsule hotel in Japan are not only in pink. This is just one place. Other ones are not pink though it’s the same group owned by a same company. There’re other ones owned by other companies throughout Japan for women only. And they are not in pink but catered to women, not men. If you look at modern capsule hotels catered to men, they’re also very clean. Go take a look there’re some videos.

Actually I’m a female and lot of girls bullied me

@@anonymous-cx7ng ok and?

@@anonymous-cx7ng you’re not a girl, stop trying to get attention , it’s goofy

@@prettytopia I’m a girl are you kidding? You haven’t seen me why would I lie?

@@student-.. why do they say they don’t feel safe with males? That’s sexist! women are the same also women are more mean to each other

They say that the color pink is calming.

lol

@@imnothere5801 Aside from the fact that other women only capsule hotels aren’t in pink, the color pink is said to rejuvenate and keep women young according to some Japanese psychologists. And this kind pink is calming.

@@KittenBowl1 these Japanese pseudo “psychologists” are tripping. It’s absurd to genderise object such as colors

@@imnothere5801 it’s not calming for me.

What you are suggesting is gender segregation

@@101Sailorfan if it means protecting us women and making us safe, call it what you want.

@@rose_studios8674 how was what I said mean?
Edit: I have reviewed my comment and it was not mean at all. I just stated a fact.
I am not offended by your comment nor should you be by mine. I would add however, that i think we should be cautious about wanting segregated restaurants as that could result in men holding company meetings at male only restaurants which would make it harder for women to go up the career ladder.
For the record, i 100% agree with hostels being one gender, especially since in Japan there are already men only ones, and it's only fair to have the same for women.

there are, that you can't find the places or can pay for them (or travel to that kind of places) it's not the people's fault...well, women

@@tagaukimasumi7818 y'know white people said the same thing about black people not being able to eat in "their" lunch counters. Nobody is being protected by a women only restaurant. That being said hotels are a different story.

And if you want, they can provide stuffed animals or a body pillow if you have to cuddle something while you sleep :>

I hate the color, made it look like children hospital

Thank you for watching🥰 It was a lovely pink world💕

I hate it

@@anonymous-cx7ng why?

@- Astor - their profile picture is black. Maybe dont assume the worst? Maybe they just don't like pink

@@alyzeaaa Look at their other comments.

Literally, it wouldn't work, space costs a lot, so, minimising your potential customer base means less potential profit. Everything is about money, if it isn't financially profitable in a short period of time, it won't be worth the cost.

@@annoyingginger5077 It depends. Such segmentation of potential clients can reduce expenses for adverts and increase loyalty, sales and income. Otherwise female magazines, female taxi, women's hairdressing salons and other types of businesses oriented to female wouldn't work.
Female hotels have big potential really.

@@yuliaf5038 but only in the right locations, cities would be best but even then it has to be a prime spot in the right city. Cities prime for tourism would be hit or miss due to people often wanting to stay with their group, but Cities known for business would probably do best

@@annoyingginger5077 yes, sure, that's why I said, it depends. Strategy, money, business plan, location, design and so on, all above are important and should be observed carefully as in any business.

@@yuliaf5038 especially in a business model like this which isn't common

Yes!

If you need women-only hotels to feel "comfortable", then travelling alone is not for you. Travelling alone is for adventure, and there is no point to it just extending your home to another country.

@@yivunqp963 what’s wrong with wanting to have the freedom to travel whenever and however you want in a safe way?

@@oqeufh I didn't say it is wrong to want to travel in a safe way. I am saying it is pointless to travel and expect your destination to be just like home. Plus travelling solo is not for everyone. Especially not for people who are not prepared to handle unexpected scenarios and can only feel safe in a protected zone.
Solo travelling is no joke and if you can't take the real world. Don't do it.

@@oqeufh also, most places are already safe as they are without women-only hotels. Are you seriously surprised that all reputable hotels already don't allow harassment on their premises without being women-only? But nothing can be done for percieved danger. Plus women-only hotels are not necessary safer since they will be high-target area for women-related crimes.

Hi! I'm a girl who is planning on a solo trip to Japan (I've been saving for one year and plan on working another year before starting my travel to Japan). Do you have any advice since you experienced this personally?

I once said it's like ASMR but without all the crazy, often loud, noises. LoL

The Korean spas in the USA practice the same - shoes OUT when one is IN .

I mean it’s normal for most of the world, except we don’t need to wear slippers like a granny, just feet or socks

Actually in Japan, in most hotels it’s kept by the entrance of a room which is right by the bathroom usually or near the coat hanger. Hotels are western facilities therefore we walk in with shoes as it’s a lobby and hallways etc. Only when you walk inside a room we take off shoes. And outside of the US, even in a country like Canada, we take off our shoes at the entrance. It’s very weird to see Americans just walk into a home with shoes on or watch TV with shoes on, it’s not that way in many countries in the West like UK, Spain, France, where I also live we take off our shoes when we are invited into another home. Otherwise moms usually scold us even visitors.

@@thatonegamer2921 Only in the US they don’t take off their shoes. I’ve also lived in the US and they walk around living room and dining room with outside shoes. It’s unthinkable for me.

Oh, really? Yes, this hotel was really nice!🥰

The men in these comments are telling on themselves

Why are they so mad at women for having a space where they feel safe?

@@Milkythefawn not to mention, a lot of capsule hotels are male only, so a female only one isn't even that special or exceptional or 'women segrating themselves' since men literally did it first lmao

OMG! This crime drama was very interesting🤣

Thank you for watching! I recommend this capsule hotel🌸

This!!! The men in the comments are definitely creeps.

If the woman is getting domestic abuse by a man, then it is the best to get a divorce

What about homosexuals?

@@AOI_SATO I mean Im a woman who likes women so yea true didn't think about that I guess they would stop them from entering regardless of gender if you tell them who is harassing you even if it is a woman

@@AOI_SATO a lot of us know what it's like to be harassed, so we would never want to inflict that on another person.

Hi, I have many Japan travel videos on my channel! Check it out!😉

Would never happen in 🇺🇸 you’d have lawsuits galore especially from 6ft5in Twomen banging on the door of the hotel to be let in.
Very progressive society.

we’ve women only cars in metros in our country!

The problem is that women can victimize other women so claiming it's "safe" does not mean it is. Women DO harass and bother other women, women steal, women assault, women rape and women kill.

@Warda Wada Trans women

What’s a powder room?

Well these videos are most likely taken during the least busy times of the day and maybe even week, with any footage with people in it probably being cut to avoid having to censor their faces etc.
Tourism is also still recovering after Covid.
You are sharing a room with like 8 other people, just within a capsule, and using the sinks etc you might also be sitting there with like 10 different people. Definitely not more introverted than a regular hotel room.
Still, seems pretty quiet!

A more introverted place would be a love hotel lol

4:54 7:02 Wow you found it!😳 In Japanese, it is written「段差注意」 (meaning "Watch your step")😂 Thank you for watching☺️

Due to the coronavirus, accounting should not be too much of a problem since language selectable reimbursement machines are now in widespread use.
(Sorry I don't speak English, I use a translation application.)

I'm certain that many more Japanese can speak English than English-speaking tourists can speak Japanese. I'm sure it's the same as travelling to any country that speaks another language; learn basic phrases, have either a little book or phone app that can help, use gestures, etc.

@@emilyb.8219 well actually the truth of this is that about 97% of Japanese natives aren’t actually confident at becoming a fluent English speaker, which is one of the top 5 or 10 least confident English speakers in Asia.

Hi, I have many Japan travel videos on my channel! Check it out!😉

As a fellow European, I'm actually glad capsule hotels don't exist. Living in a coffin-like space is something I feel dehumanising, @2:40 looks like the niches at my local cemetery. It's claustrophobic. No sunlight, no windows for fresh air. I don't care about having TV screens or integrated technology, I don't need that stuff. Cramming people in impossible spaces. And they make money out of that. Sorry, but no. I don't want this to come to our culture.

Safety is not a privilege, it is a human right.

Thanks for watching! If you come to Japan, you should experience capsule hotels☺️✨
