Gundam hotel
Picture of the Day ( 21 )
Black cushions with emblems of the Zeon Armed Forces, left, and the Earth Federation Forces of Japan’s popular animation Gundam are placed on beds in a Gundam-themed special guestroom at a hotel in Tokyo on Thursday, one day before its launch. Hotel Grand Pacific Le Daiba has spent about 10 million yen to convert a 84-square-meter two-room suite into the “Room-G, special type” guestroom decorated with paintings, cutouts, the bedding, room keys and other items featuring the anime characters. The special suite costs 26,000 yen a person when it is reserved for two.

"Why does Japan charge per person and not for the room?"
Because they can get away with it. Japanese hotels in foreign locations usually waive this. Anti-competitive business practices in Japan never cease to amaze me.

84 square meters? That's huge - Bigger than some entire hotels! And is 26000 yen for a whole night or per hour?

At $640 a night it better be large! It cost the $125,000 to convert a room!? The "suite" does not look that large in the picture. So much money to spend and spend to spllep in a room like that!? Only an Otaku would spend money like that.

So for two, it would cost 52,000 yen? 80 yen per dollar..... so $640 per night? No thanks. I pass... Red and Black interior like this will keep me stay up all night. Cheap taste with no class!. Geez.

I'm surprised they didn't fit it out with modern furniture... hardly worth the money for wall-stripes and custom pillows.
And twin beds? Not expecting any otaku with ladies then.

Not a Gundam fan at all, but it looks like a neat place to stay. Themed rooms are cool!
I am just flabbergasted at how much the renovation cost!

This is nowhere near as good as any of the love hotel rooms I've had such a great time in.

$655.74...? That's alot of Gundam money for two one night? Does'nt look very romantic... I would have to find out what all the Gundam excitement is about! Then maybe...?

I challenge the two who gave me thumbs down to go stay at the Gundam Hotel, pay for one, have a guest stay over, and see how it goes.

It looked small. If I ever a Gundam fan, I would rather buy Gundam stuff (pillows etc) and decorate my bed with that much of the money.

So Serrano, which Rabu Hoterus do you recommend?? I know you are not into Gundam, neither am I, I know my kids would prefer Star Wars theme though.

They can bar you from having guests and they can decide that your guest was in fact a "guest" of the hotel who has to pay. I would say if anyone wants to attempt your little scheme, they be ready to cave in if push comes to shove, because I bet if the police are called, it will ruin your day.
