Go Tokyo Your Experience
Accompanied by the influence of pop culture, many children are attracted by the charm of Doraemon, among which the unique lifestyle of using the closet in Nobita’s room as a bed is particularly noteworthy. This setting has not only become a classic scene in the anime but has also inspired children’s yearning for their own secret bases.
Nowadays, this idea has been put into practice by a certain inn in Japan, allowing guests to personally experience this unique lodging experience.
A Japanese netizen named “Rudi Master” recently shared his unique experience at a Japanese inn, which unexpectedly sparked heated discussions. He discovered that the inn had transformed its traditional closets into designs resembling Doraemon’s bed, evoking endless imagination.
I arrived at the inn. I had heard it was a Japanese-style room, but the bed was actually set inside a recess, how mysterious!
In general, the guest rooms in Japanese inns have futons laid on tatami mats for guests to sleep on, with housekeeping staff taking out the futons from the closet for setting up. However, in this room where the “Dojishi” stayed, the closet space was simply converted into a fixed bed, and he believes this design brings a living experience akin to that of Doraemon.
While observing this closet bed, I noticed that the interior is equipped not only with lighting and outlets but also has curtains, all of which make the living experience more comfortable. Moreover, the refrigerator and wardrobe are also within easy reach.
Unlike other ordinary Japanese rooms in hotels, this bed space transformed from a wardrobe has received many positive reviews from tourists. It is said that this design was originally intended to attract young travelers, especially those who have been fascinated by anime since childhood.
After pulling the door curtain, I experienced it from Doraemon’s perspective, it truly was an unforgettable night!
This innovative room design has immediately attracted widespread attention on social media. Many netizens have expressed that such a design feels like a secret base, filled with childlike wonder and freshness.
This is such an exciting little space!
I feel like I can really relax♪
However, the specific reasons for the hotel’s transformation have also sparked speculation among netizens:
Perhaps this is for the convenience of foreign tourists, as they are not accustomed to sleeping on the floor, so they have converted the closets into beds.
It may have been considered to be easier for the elderly to get into bed, after all, getting up from the floor can be somewhat difficult for them.
I guess the aging issue of hotels also makes it difficult for housekeeping staff to make beds and fold blankets every day; this design may be aimed at reducing the workload.
The guest rooms in ‘From Akebono Saka’ also have this feeling.
It seems like the apartments built by Tongrunhui.
The creative design of these closet beds not only adds fun and appeal to the hotel but also reflects the Japanese inns’ attempts and transformations in integrating modern elements. The enthusiastic discussions among netizens indicate a shared interest in innovation and nostalgia.
The attempt of Japanese inns with closet beds shows that the combination of tradition and modernity can bring a more diverse accommodation experience, satisfying the needs and fantasies of different travelers. At the same time, it also provides inspiration and reference for other inns that hope to attract customers through distinctive designs.
