If you are hearing this term ' Pod Hotel' for the first time, you are not alone. Originally developed in Japan, the concept of the Pod Hotel features a series of small, bed-sized rooms known as capsules, primarily sought after by travelers as a place that offers great respite at an affordable cost.

A company named Bharath Pods is setting up a Pod Hotel in Coimbatore, near the L&T Bypass, which is likely to be the first of its kind in the city.

Images of the capsule rooms released by the company have already started attracting public interest.

The charges for a stay in this hotel are yet to be revealed by the establishment.
