But now I read that they are bigger than the Jananese ones. They are all en suite.
Not acutal capsules, more like super-mini hotel rooms without window to the outside (but they do have windows to the floor).
Heres an article I found:

And these pics are from the yotel site:
NOW THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT.... all airports should have them.

But I did find something more like the Japanese capsules when I was looking for a cheap room in London last year. If I find it again, I'll post it here.

I found it. It's the so-called POD-dorm of the Piccadilly Backpackers Hostel in London:
Here's the homepage of the hostel:

I definitely think more public spaces should provide safe and efficient venues for resting and napping...even if one had to pay a fee to use them. I think the world would be a little less cranky and stressful if people were better rested.
