The first Capsule hotel in Israel is called CapsuleInn and will open on Jaffa Street in Jerusalem with an investment of 1.5 million dollars. The complex includes 26 accommodation capsules, some for a single person and some for couples, 2.2 meters long, 1.2 meters wide and 1 meter high.
Each capsule includes a bed, air conditioner, multi-channel TV, adjustable lighting, WIFI, connection ports for phone charging and more. In the middle of the complex is a room for guests to gather and hang out, showers, toilets, and a room with personal lockers to store backpacks, luggage and valuables.
The price per day for accommodation at the capsule hotel in Jerusalem is 99 ILS for a single person and 199 ILS (before VAT) for a capsule for a couple. As mentioned, capsule hotels are a global trend that allows, especially for young people, accommodation and basic services without paying hundreds of shekels a night in a mid-level hotel.
The entrepreneur, Dvir Indig, said that recently the capsule hotel has become a hit among young people, Israelis and tourists, and operates at over 90% occupancy, this is why the chain will expand and establish capsule hotels nationwide.
