Japan’s Famous “Robot Hotels” Are Coming To New York
A “robot hotel” sounds like the setting of a really bad science fiction movie that somehow becomes a cult classic. It doesn’t exactly evoke the futuristic luxury of Japanese hospitality. Alas, Japan’s Hen na Hotel Group is famous for their hotel designs that feature innovative design, technology, and animatronics. The company’s 20 “robot hotels” are found throughout Japan, and now they have opened overseas for the first time — in New York City.
