Basically it is a small hotel room that can be placed anywhere, but the place that makes most sense is airports. In fact, one of Russia’s biggest airports – Sheremetyevo – has just opened its first Sleepboxes.
The pods are created in various designs ranging from plywood to metal.
The Arch Group is presenting their new product as a potential business proposal. A single sleepbox costs only $7,000 and with projected night rates of $60 it’s an investment that, depending on the location, can recoup itself in 6 to 9 months.
Sleepbox pods can also be placed in unused commercial premises creating a hotel in a matter of days. Anyone’s got an unused hangar in their backyard?
These things are wild! Hopefully they have a comfortable bed in there:)
