Capsule hotels are well known for its bee-hive looking exterior with a small entrance that opens up to a chamber space just enough for people to sit up. And similar to bunk beds, the chambers are usually stacked on top of each other and arranged side by side.

We even have a few of them in Malaysia! Thanks to its simplicity and low budget costings, PLUS Highway is planning to introduce capsule hotels at its Rest and Relax (R&R) stops along the north-south expressway next year, according to the director Azman Ismail. He said it is a better option for truck drivers and long distance drivers who are stopping by for a short rest instead of an overnight sleep.

In the meantime, here are 5 unique capsule hotels around the world.
