Take a Look Inside Tokyo’s Newly Revamped Capsule Hotel - AFAR

"Reimagined by Schemata Architects under Jo Nagasaka, this eight-story capsule hotel in Ebisu blends a retro capsule-hotel vibe with a modern, minimalist aesthetic: 162 sleeping pods (43 in × 87 in × 43 in / 110 cm × 220 cm × 100 cm) feature refurbished interiors finished in raw plywood, fiber-reinforced plastic, and concrete floors. The redesign intentionally incorporates Finnish saunas on the first and seventh floors—imported from Finland and available between 1 p.m. and 10 a.m.—playing up the long-standing stereotype that older capsule hotels resemble saunas. Guests must check in and out daily; rates start at 4,900 yen (about US$45) per night, and a “Nap Plan” allows hourly use of pods, saunas, and the lounge for 1,500 yen (≈US$14) with each additional hour costing 500 yen (≈US$5). Practical conveniences include shower units stocked with shampoo, conditioner, and soap, while the overall offering positions the capsule model closer to boutique design lodging without sacrificing affordability and convenience." - Sarah Buder

if you're staying 1-2 nights this place is sufficient but ı do not recommend for long trips. Capsules feel stuffy and it is inconveniant for barhroom to be in a different floor. However for short trips this place is good enough. It is close to subway and overall locations good.

“The great Capsule Hotel”It was great stay 2 night at at Do-c Shibuya Ebisu. The capsule are clean, the reception in 2nd floor, there is waiting room while waiting check in or check out or just relax. The capsule for man and woman is separate. There is also sauna ,locker facilities. Shower room and sauna for man at third floor and for woman at sixth floor. Situated at Shibuya Ebisu, 3 minutes walk from Shibuya Ebisu station then take west exit. Their staff's very responsive and helpful. I would recommend this capsule hotel for backpackers or budget traveler.

The plastic walls of the capsule allow the noise to bounce directly to your ears. You cannot sleep here! Fan broken, pillow made of plastic balls, have to check out by 1100 and check back in at 1500 if you are staying more than one night. Cannot leave bags in hotel during that time! Not worth the money saved. I got maybe 1hr of sleep. Every cough, sneeze, person walking in, someone going to bathroom, drunk guys coming in late, someone rustling in their capsule, someone accidentally hitting the wall of their capsule, will wake you! The sauna was rather impressive, very hot, with option for something like a cold plunge and good showers.

Great location from Ebisu station (JY line), I had a very satisfied experience with the location, the lobby is spacious, the sauna and shower room is excellent. Only the weak point is the sleeping area has no door in each capsule, only a curtain. When travelers bring in their suitcase and if they pack their suitcase in the sleeping area at night when people sleeping , can’t really sleep well becoz of the disturb. I hope the hotel will put a sign or notice to users no packing luggage after a certain time at night so that other sleeping users can have peace. Other than that, I love this place a lot.

Do yourself a favour and don’t go here. Price is in the upper range, but facilities are in the lower. The check out everyday system is really annoying, and you don’t get access to your luggage during the period that you are not allowed to be in the hostel (11-15). The people at the counter do their best (they’re nice), but the rest is just annoying. Also, you don’t get a new towel after you used it, only 1 a day and there is nowhere to hang it to dry.

Believe the bad reviews – we didn’t sleep at all. Everything the negative reviews say is true. The lights stay on all night, and the capsules are not soundproof—you only get a thin paper privacy screen, so you hear everything around you. There’s no air circulation inside the capsule—even with the fan on, it felt stuffy and uncomfortable. My TV shelf was broken and covered in dust. The sauna was good, but the rest of the place is covered in mold. Also, there’s only one elevator for eight floors, and no stairs, which makes moving around frustrating. No water station. Wouldn’t stay here again.

Would stay again. Amazing shower and had a quiet rest. The location is perfect. Near metro, so very easy to get around. Ebisu is an awesome area too. Lots of cool upscale bars and food options. I hate being around other people and even I enjoyed here haha

Perfect for solo travelers. You have to check out everyday so that they can clean the space but that wasn’t a hindrance to my plans at all. There’s only one elevator so plan accordingly on that front. The sauna was absolutely delightful. Perfect after getting in 20-30k steps a day
