Book worms can now sleep in a Book Shelf in Kyoto’s new themed accommodation

If you love to read this new concept could be for you. Book and Bed is Kyoto’s first “library hostel”. A haven for book lovers, guest readers can stay for an hour or even a whole night. Much cheaper than a regular hotel beware the facilities are also more Spartan. The tiny bed spaces amongst the book shelves are similar in size to a capsule hotel and some even have tiny windows with views of Kamo River.


Book And Bed is "an accommodation bookshop"

The perfect setting for a good nights sleep is something you will not find here.There are no comfortable mattresses, fluffy pillows nor lightweight and warm down duvets.

What we do offer is an experience while reading a book (or comic book).

An experience shared by everyone at least once : the blissful "instant of falling asleep".

It is already 2 am but you think just a little more... with heavy drooping eye lids you continue reading only to realize you have fallen asleep.

Our concept is thus a readers haven - an accommodation bookshop.
(Books aren’t sold, though. It’s just an expression.)

Dozing off obliviously during your treasured pasttime is the finest "moment of sleep", don't you
agree?

With books as our central theme, we decided to create a hostel offering the greatest "moment of sleep".

BOOK AND BED TOKYO's signature color blue sofa is at share space, many of books hanging from the ceiling, the big bookshelf can be stored up to 3,000 books. It would be needles to say what you have an experience in this space surrounded by a lot of books. This is the reader's paradise.

1,700 books cover a wide range of genres selected by the popular book store SPBS. (Up to 3,000 books) It has a rich collection of english book and Japanese travel guide book, but Japanese book as well.

It is an entrance of BOOK AND BED TOKYO when the elevator open up at 7th floor. There is a reception to your left. English speakers are welcome you and tell them your name.
