Pod hotels or capsule hotels are still a relatively new concept to Indian citizens. When we think of a hotel we think of luxury, opulence, and of free breakfast buffets. But as travel opportunities increase post-pandemic, our idea of what a hotel is is slowly changing too. Developed in Japan, a pod hotel or capsule hotel features a large number of small bed-sized pods, that come fully equipped with amenities that we would find at a regular hotel — small screens, wi-fi, air conditioning and/or heating, etc. It acts most effectively for travellers on the go, providing basic and affordable accommodation for people who have a quick overnight stay, or just a few hours to kill. Here’s a look at a few new up-and-coming pod hotels across the country.

I. UrbanPod, Mumbai India’s first pod hotel is in Mumbai and caters to the new age traveller. With a super cool futuristic look, the 140 pods come equipped with air-conditioning, a personal locker, USB ports, Wi-Fi, a dresser, a TV, as well as included breakfast. With a location that’s conveniently located near the airport, owners Shalabh Mittal & Hiren Gandhi have hit gold by being the first ones in what is sure to be a very crowded market. Make your reservations here.

II. Snooze at My Space, Delhi Conveniently located at two locations in the Delhi airport, this is the perfect place for both domestic and international passengers to rest and rejuvenate with a runway view. Fitted with all the amenities that you could ask for, plus a toilet and shower area, luggage storage, and a mini-fridge, SAMS Delhi makes for the perfect capsule stay. With hourly and daily rates, they offer complete security and privacy, so no more lamenting about a prolonged flight delay or layover. Check them out here.

III. Aventura Fernhill, Ooty For the slightly more adventurous traveller who still wants a little luxury, try glamping at Aventura Ooty. Stay in Aventura Fernhill’s experimental ‘Hobbit-Holes’ with complete privacy and a queen-sized bed. They also offer activities like ATV rides, cycling, and a private bonfire. The pods are situated among the lush greenery of Ooty and are at a height of 4500 sq. feet above sea level. Have a look at them here.

IV. Bedspace, MangaloreLocated less than a kilometre away from Mangalore Central Railway Station, this is another budget-friendly pod hotel perfect for a quick overnight stay. Well maintained and clean, the room has every amenity you could need for a short stay, along with being close to malls, restaurants, and other tourist locations. Check them out here.
