BOOK AND BED SHINJUKU
Savants can sleep easy at this bonkers hostel, where bookcases double as compact capsule beds. This branch of the Tokyo hostel chain, opened last May in neon-lit Shinjuku, follows its signature industrial chic aesthetic: concrete floors, exposed pipes, plywood shelves packed
with thousands of tomes. The 55 guest rooms range from singles, accessed via a ladder, to king size. The cafe has a theme colour: try the avocado on jet-black toast. ROOMS: From £35, room only. bookandbedtokyo.com
