Capsule Hotel Overview

Capsule hotel is also known as pod hotel in the western world. These types of hotels originated in Japan that feature many small bed-sized rooms known as pods/capsules. These types of hotels provide cheap/budget overnight stay for travelers who cannot afford expensive rooms offered by convenient hotels. The first pod hotel opened in 1979 and was named Capsule Inn Osaka, located in the Umeda district of Osaka, Japan.

Impact Analysis of COVID-19 on the Global Capsule Hotel Market

The novel coronavirus pandemic has affected several industries across the globe, and the capsule hotel industry is among the hardest hits. Due to complete lockdowns and fear of spreading coronavirus, many countries imposed travel bans, affecting the growth of the pod hotel industry. Furthermore, many companies have adopted a work from home strategy, and restriction on business travel to contain the spread of novel coronavirus had severely affected the growth of the hotel industry.

Japan is the largest market for the capsule industry in the world. Besides, both international and national travelers and tourists have declined drastically and postponing of Olympic Games had a devastating effect on the industry. According to the official OYO blog published on 29 April 2020, the number of foreign tourists visiting Japan declined by 93% in March 2020 compared to the previous year in the same period. South Korean visitors, the second-largest contingent of tourists in Japan also diminished in the same period. Visitors from China, accounting for the largest portion of the total number of tourists to Japan, have reduced by 98.5%.

Surging Demand for Affordable Hotel is anticipated to Fuel the Market Growth

The economic development in the Asia-Pacific region has led to an increase in the middle-class population. With the changing lifestyle, psychograph, and ambition for life, the middle-class population seeks overseas travel. Furthermore, the middle-class population is increasingly spending on leisure activities, including travel & tourism. As per Julius Baer, a leading Swiss wealth management group, the U.S. World Tourism Organization estimated that the Chinese spent around USD 277 billion overseas in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 462 billion in 2025.

To boost the travel and tourism industry, the government of India had announced various tax exemptions which would lead to savings, which according to industry people will convert into a traveling budget for the people. Furthermore, millennials are increasing spending on leisure activities. Many millennials prefer solo traveling to explore new places and cultural diversity. This trend is anticipated to fuel the demand for affordable hotels, including the capsule hotel market.

Growing Presence of Affordable Hotels to Restrain the Market Growth

Increasing leisure travel and rising disposable income of the middle-class population have resulted in bolstering mid-price hotels. The influx of domestic and international tourists in India, Japan, Thailand, and China is also fueling the demand for affordable hotels. With the growing demand for mid-priced hotels, several international brands are entering the mid-price hotel industry. Moreover, to stay in the competitive market, these hoteliers are providing all standard amenities, including free internet, dinner, separate rooms with attached washrooms, and gym & spa facilities. The mid-priced range hotels provide all the amenities at USD 20 - USD 30 for a night stay. The capsule hotel industry also provides all these amenities at the same price range, thereby restraining the market growth during the forecast period.

Growing Hospitality and Tourism Industry Hotel to Create Massive Investment Opportunities

The rising middle-class and increasing disposable income have resulted in increased spending on leisure activities. The millennial population is steadily increasing, so is their importance.
