Published: Apr 30, 2024
Book and Bed, a library themed hotel, in Tokyo’s Ikebukuro district is designed for book-lovers.
The hostel had opened last year beds the in November, with the smallest ones being 80cm × 205cm and costing 4,500¥ (about $40).
Beds are hidden behind library shelves filled with 1,700 books in Japanese and English.
The blurb on the website explains: “There are no comfortable mattresses, fluffy pillows nor lightweight and warm down duvets.” Instead guests are invited simply to read themselves to sleep.
