一度は試しに泊まってみたかった「変なホテル」。今月から銀座にもオープン。二体のロボットがジーーーッとフロントに立ってるけど、それだけでしたw 結局、フロントでのやりとりも人でしたけども。むしろちょっとした変更などは融通が利かないというデメリットが。。名前のインパクトのわりには、部屋もサービスもいたってふつう。一度泊まればもう、いいかな（笑） Finally stayed at the robot hotel. Two robot girls are just standing at the front desk and doing nothing special. #変なホテル東京銀座 #robothotel (変なホテル)

An English-speaking receptionist is a vicious-looking dinosaur, and the one speaking Japanese is a female humanoid with blinking lashes. From the front desk to the porter that is an automated trolley taking luggage to the room, this hotel in south-western Japan, aptly called Weird Hotel, is “manned” almost totally by robots to save labour costs. A giant robotic arm, usually seen in manufacturing, sits in glass quarters in the lobby. It lifts one of the boxes stacked into the wall and puts it through space in the glass, where a guest can place an item in it, to use as a locker. Some have expressed concerns about what would happen in an emergency, but the hotel has reassured prospective guests that human hotel staff are on duty 24-7. Rooms start at around 8500 yen ($93) per night and the hotel also has an unusual bidding feature where guests can bid for rooms on-line. The hotel is located at the Huis Ten Bosch amusement park — an "eco-friendly future city" which mimics the Netherlands by displaying real-size copies of old Dutch buildings. Thank you for reading. 

Opening just three months ago, China’s first (and so far only) robot hotel has gained widespread media attention, and is a must for both local and visiting tech geeks and sci-fi fans alike. From reception, to security doormen and waiters, the Pengheng Space Capsule Hotel’s amenable robot staff are on hand to take care of your every need.
