Japanese Sleeping Pods Arrive in England

For £10 an hour, or £75 a night, guests will be able to sleep in rooms measuring 10 square metres and without any proper windows.
The only light will come from "internal windows" on to "naturally lit" corridors.
The absence of external windows means the hotels can be built anywhere, including city centres, airports, and underground.
Mr Woodroffe insists that while they may have cut down on the size, they have not skimped on the luxury.
All the rooms, which have been described by their designer as "luxury liner meets The Fifth Element", will contain a flat screen TV, a rotating bed (to save space) have broadband internet access and aircraft-style lighting.
[that's about $135 per night in US dollars --ed.]
