Overview
About Capsule Hotel
Your own survival pod! Escape pod hotel in a seaside dock location.
Based at F.A.S.T. (Free Architecture Surf Terrain) - a unique and artistic surfers village on the boulevard of Scheveningen near The Hague, your room is a bright orange survival pod which once saw service on an oil rig platform. Originally built in 1972 they are 4.25 metres in diameter and unaltered apart from the addition of a lock on the outside and an ‘emergency’ chemical toilet inside. Thankfully sited on land, they're much more comfortable than their original purpose. While not everyone’s luxury choice, each pod provides cosy protection from the elements for up to three occupants.
First created for accommodation as an art project in 2004, owner Denis Oudendijk has different models ready for use and is currently working on additional locations in central Amsterdam, Belgium and Nantes, France.

Rooms: Two pods
A number of overnight packages are available from a basic survival package with a sleeping bag and emergency rations, through to a James Bond themed luxury offering. This package has to be tried, (think the final escape pod scene of “The Spy who Loved me"), for its kitsch factor of a provided disco mirror ball, fairy light decorations and sleeping bags with silk liners replacing the basic cotton.
To get you in the correct mood, the luxury package also includes a DVD player with all the Bond movies on disc. In addition, your survival box is transformed into a luxury version with goodies including sparkling wine and a collection of vodka bar miniatures to create your own Martini’s shaken or stirred!
