The Millennials Shibuya is a capsule hotel, a Japanese minimalist lodging option embraced by business travelers looking for a clean bed for a night at a reasonable price. However, the growing Millennials hotel group, whose target market may be implied in the name of the property, and with locations in Kyoto and Fukuoka, turns the format on its head. In fact, this reworking adds a lot of extra comfort and style to the mix. It does simplicity with such style, in fact, its ratings on different travel sites are as high as many of Tokyo’s 4- and5-star hotels.

Unlike other capsule hotels, this property is bright, smoke-free, beautifully decorated, perfectly located, seven minutes’ walk from Shibuya Station on mostly flat streets, and has other perks that make it just as appealing to business and leisure travelers of all ages. The bright, artsy lobby is perfect for informal social gatherings, while an “andwork” area on the floor below provides guests with quiet workspace, meeting areas, restaurant-style booths and another kitchen.

Another thing that sets Millennials apart from old-school capsule hotels is its selection of one-of-a-kind capsule rooms, decorated by local artists; one can view them on the website and book in advance online. All floors have spotless, impeccably maintained shared bathrooms with rain showers and high-quality toiletries found at more expensive hotels. Other perks include laundry facilities, crazy-comfortable Sleep Number-type beds, and iPods adapted to adjust the bed, lighting and air in your “smart pod,” and get in and out of the building after hours. There is also free continental breakfast, fresh complimentary coffee served 24 hours and a weekday happy hour with free craft beer from a Tokyo producer.
