The photo you have is NOT the Piccadilly capsule. The place was dire, like something out of Squidgame. Everything painted dark grey and dirty vinyl floors. The roller shutter doors on the beds were industrial and locks didn't work. No room whatsoever to put your luggage except on top of your bed. The toilets and showers were tiny and again industrial. No where to put toiletry bags so had to balance on the sink. I booked a female dorm but got a mixed. And nowhere to get dressed appart from lying down on your bed. Nothing like the pod I stayed in Tokyo which was lush. NO - I don't recommend this - Stay in YHA instead.

Would give higher rating if they had a common room. There is absolutely no place to sit down. Your either stuck in your coffin or need to be standing.

The Capsule Hotel is a hidden gem in an otherwise very busy city... I've wanted to try this experience for a few years now and I'm so glad that I did! The staff are genuine, kind, and helpful, and they really supported me throughout my whole stay. The "pods" are incredible. From the cleanliness to the ambiance, it's an experience like no other. However, I wouldn't recommend this to someone who struggles with claustrophobia; the rooms are plenty big enough for all your needs, especially for a cheap city break, but someone who struggles in/ with tight spaces may find the rooms restricting. If you are seriously considering to stay in a capsule hotel, I would recommend bringing your own handheld/ mini fan, a towel, and a padlock for comfort and security!

Amazing place to stay in the heart of London.. Would definitely return to it if I am gonna be in London. The only thing is they don't change bed covers untill u check out... In 5 days they don't changed the sheets... Plus there is no cafeteria to eat food or breakfast.

Excellent location and value for money. Friendly staff at the reception. No cold tap water to drink and terrible showers. I do not know if it really was able to lock to capsules. Anyway you need your own padlock.

The capsule, bathroom, coridoors and reception were all spotless. Staff all helpful with one significant exception which was in respone to.the constructive criticism of the signage on the stairs. There is substantial building works. There was inadequate temporary signage to direct guests to reception and not get caught trapped in the building works. Trapped being the operative word. Had there been an emergency on Friday night. On Saturday morning when three of us missed the sign directing us to receptiion twice and found ourselves trapped, I wanted to hear the response to our collective concern of ' I will look into that what you tell me not that could not have happened. I think perhaps you needed a native English speaker on duty to hear and understood this concern.

Exactly what you’d expect, the staff are great and quickly moved my bunk when the lock was broken. They’re quite hard to get hold of on WhatsApp though. There’s also no drinking water in the building.
