Staying in India's First Pod Hotel | Under Rs1400 | Urbanpod

I am so thankful to you for making this video. Being a claustrophobic I can never imagine staying in these pods, but through your video I could see everything in detail. More power to you 😘

[@ankit_singh2704]

The reason why pod hotels are such a success in Japan is because they are much much cheaper than a normal hotel room, in Mumbai just by spending a little more than 1400 you might get a 3 star hotel room, imo these are just a gimmick and won't survive for long, but yeah if you have to experience pods you can always take a Volvo sleeper bus😂

The Japanese pods are the traditional ones, these have classic rooms not "pods" the other actual pods are more like morgue beds tbh. If I'd like to stay here I would probably choose the private "pod" room cuz then claustrophobia doesn't rlly affect as it's a private room.

Did you consider the idea of Indians not "liking" the Japanese "pod living".Don't hate others because they don't like the concept.This actually a new idea not really "technology". It's about confining yourself.

@nibus9 trust me i am an Engineer and its rocket science. That place took atleast 3 years to design before even started working on the property. You saw the pods I saw the electric work the ventilation and air conditioning the ECU softwares and the fire safety if their claim is correct the fire safety systems itself took them more than an year in drawing board. I research in space saving furnitures and trust me its more than rocket science

The pod hotel or capsule hotel concept is actually designed for people who wish to have all facilities and safety but cannot afford for a full-fledged star hotel. It is a small cage with comforts for your senses. Big no-no for fat people or those who are claustrophobic.

True. People who cannot afford a star hotel will opt for oyo or airbnb since they start way cheaper. The whole concept is to provide cheaper accomodation in an expensive locality. The price defies the concept. Its only good for experiments by travellers
