Sleep in a Box at the Sleepbox Hotel

Ever wondered what it might feel like to sleep in a box? Well this hotel might just provide you with that feeling. The Sleepbox Hotel in Tverskaya Moscow is the second of its kind. The first Sleepbox hotel, designed by Alexey Goryainov and Mikhail Crimea from Moscow architectural firm Arch Group is located in Moscows Sheremetyevo Airport. This new project from Arch Group is made up of 46 double-unit and 10 single-unit pods. The double-unit pods are made from timber, while the single-units are made from aluminium and plastic.

Surprisingly the small box shaped rooms include more than just a bed or two. The rooms have a TV, mirror and storage space. The hotel then offers communal bathrooms on each floor, a lounge for guests to relax in and iPads for guests to use to plan their days and access information.

30% of Americans have a passport- Me included.. Saying that, you can understand why most Americans do not travel outside the country. Our comprehension of life outside the USA is limited to news, movies, and internet.   I mean really, United States is so large that each state is like a mini country.  To fly from New york City to California is an 8 hour flight and across two different time zones. 

When it come down to our accomdations in the USA its either a hotel, motel or bed and breakfast.   So if I ask American about a Hostel the first thing they think about is the thriller movie which made you scared to back pack through Europe. So to my American com-padres a Hostel is sociable accommodation where guests can rent a bed, usually a bunk bed, in a dormitory and share a bathroom, lounge and sometimes a kitchen.  With that information, let me introduce you to the new face of the Hostel called a  Sleep Box...

No, Sleep box is not an oversize a sleeping pill.  Sleep box is a Russian engineered soundproof box to fit single, two, or  three bunk beds with modern amenities, wifi, night stand, flip out table, linens,etc in an unique shaped space.  It provides a quick escape from searching for a hotel.  It can be used in public and private place for rent ie " Hostel".  These boxes are also used in airports, railroad stations, and offices just encase you need a little bit of rest.  No, its not sweat box, each unit has perfect insulation for attaching cooling or heating.   This Box is perfect for that over night at the airport, or 3 day trip to city you been dieing to see.  For $60 a day or $15 an hour  you can just kill some time, take a nap, or spend the night without the hassle of finding a hotel.

I don't know about you but this would be cool to see in the USA.  However, in the meantime for the those passport toting backpacker, entrepreneurs, and  exhausted adventures who don't live in a box but this my might be perfect to catch your sleep in one... A box.   See specs below

Друзья, нам есть чем гордится ! Наши русские проектировщики из Москвы, компания Arch group, создали совершенно необходимую вещь для аэропортов, вокзалов и других мест, где нужно ждать своего отправления по несколько часов. Внутри кабины Sleepbox, можно спокойно отдохнуть в приватной обстановке, привести себя в порядок и даже поспать.

Sleepbox похож на уютную комнату отдыха, только гораздо уже. Обладает минимальными функциями - розеткой и освещением. Сделана из прессованного дерева (МДФ).

В проекте уже есть более комфортные боксы. Они оснащены местом для хранения багажа, настольной лампой, электрически-управляемых жалюзи, Wi-Fi, банковским сейфом и даже touchscreen телевидением.
