High-tech hotels staffed by robots !
Henn na hotel, literally the weird hotel. They are increasing in Japan, these enjoyable accommodations where a multilingual (Japanese, English, Corean, Chinese) robot velociraptor or humanoïde will be in charge of your check-in before another will be pleased to bring your luggage in your room. Known to have built the famous robot named Pepper, in partnership with the japanese company Softbank, some of these robots are the creation of the french company Aldebaran robotics. Plenty of surprises are waiting for you there, as a facial recognition system to access your room, or little robots which take care of your room lighting, inform you about the breakfast hours, the weather...
However, at the beginning, some tasks were confessed difficult to manage for these robots; some started talking during the night, the beds were not well made, and their answers to the questions are of course still very limited. But since its opening in 2015 in Nagasaki, "henn na hotel" constantly improve its unique service for you to enjoy a perfect stay. The buildings are also designed to respond to the ecological standards regarding the use of lighting, and a controlled air conditioning system. You will find all you need to spend a great time for a reasonable price, and make your children delighted !
