TOKYO: A hotel in Japan is defying the digital books trend and appealing to guests who prefer to curl up with a traditional paper book.
Book and Bed Tokyo, a variation of Japan’s famous capsule hotels, offers guests a closet-sized bunk embedded in rows of bookshelves.
The walls, ceiling and most of the decor of the hotel are packed with 3,200 books in different languages.
A common room serves as a lounge for day visitors who can also come to share the experience of reading books together.
„There are many visitors staying in one big space, so we can communicate and feel relaxed,“ said student Natsuki Suno, who was taking a break from her studies.
