Staying at a Hotel with Vintage Vending Machines in Japan
Vložit

- I stayed at Hotel Korakuen/ホテル公楽園 in Niigata Prefecture. It’s the most affordable accommodation in the area, attracting enthusiasts from all over Japan with its vintage vending machines and arcade games. You can’t book a room online; reservations are only accepted over the phone in Japanese. They do not accommodate reservations in English, which is why there’s hardly any information about Hotel Korakuen in English.

12:00 "Nearby means a 1-hour round trip on foot", I'm already in love with your dry humour. 😅
Amazing how even the most dank and creepy Japanese motel seems so much safe than most places in western countries.
Bonjin is brave like samurai warrior. No dingy hotel with broken vending machines scare him!!
A plane, a train, and a death defying 30 minute walk, shows your commitment to your followers. I guess the journey is worth it for the wallpaper alone.
Walking 30+ minutes in japan is pretty common
this is the first time i see japan's actual rural community. also the unmanned train station is something out of a horror novel or slice of life.
Wild that you FLEW , not to mention all the other travel, to eat some sad sandwiches. I admire your dedicaion!
Nissin needs to bring more of their products to the US. I see a lot of things in your and other creators videos, and I get rather jealous that I can't experience those foods myself.
Thank You for allowing us to tag along on your trip.
We need more products over here in the UK, too. You can find a semi decent selection of cup noodles over here, but more would be nice.
As soon as you arrived at the hotel I recognised it as Korakuen! It was in the first episode of an excellent Japanese comedy drama series called Nihon Boro Yado Kiko, where the two main characters are touring Japan and can only afford to stay in shabby hotels. As the video mentioned there are many shabby hotel enthusiasts who seek out old run down hotels to stay at. Awesome video, thank you for going there! 😃👍
What an interesting hotel! Scary, yes, but I appreciate the efforts they make to maintain the old vending machines. In any other country they would be long since discarded.
Thank you fro taking us along! I enjoy your videos and seeing as much of Japan as possible. :)
I would be scared to stay in a hotel that run-down looking.
Japanese version of The Bates Motel.😯😯 I just couldn't sleep there. I would go visit the vending machines & book it to another newer hotel.
If I get Nightmares I'm Blaming you! 😂
Seriously though, Very intriguing.
Liminal Space Type Feeling.
I just found ur channel, you are a very brave soul. That hotel made my whole body itch. I couldn’t do it. Big ups to you my friend❤
Great video, you captured the mood of a quiet old motel in Japan reminded me of 80's movies. Keep it up, maybe try talking I always want to hear peoples voices in a vlog.
I really enjoyed watching this video, love the vintage atmosphere and the yummy looking food! Thank you for taking us along in this exciting trip! Please keep it up and stay safe out there! 🙏🏽
OMG, you're so brave to stay there, It looks like a place they film horror movies at. It's nice they had all those vending machines and the arcade,Glad you're safe😊 🙏
Thanks for taking me along. I enjoyed the trip and the company 😊
Apocalypse themed hotel.
Oh man, I can't wait to stay here. I'm a showa retro nerd, since I grew up with it. Thanks for the video!
I really enjoyed it I love the retro vibe it peaked my interest a lot
That motel looks really intriguing. I would like to visit it, for the ancient vending machines, because that totally something that makes Japan so special for me (for all the "crazy stuff"). It looks like in the middle of nowhere however. I dont mind that everything very old, as it is clean. What I definitely dont like however, it that apparently everything smells of cigarette smoke. That is a definitive no go for me. Still, thanks a lot for sharing.
I agree. The smoke smell definitely kills it.
Wow awesome😊❤❤❤🤩😍🥰🗾🎉
You are very brave for staying there. 😮
You are way braver than I am. I would take one look at the building and turn around.
Very interesting.
Looks like a good set for a horror film. I'd love to visit :)
Love the DPRK style light switches
Please if you go back there, can we take a look at more of the machines? The gaming ones too. I love seeing what games they somehow have in such obscure places. Like that time I spotted a Metal Slug cabinet on a rare ferry route tiny arcade room.
i love the video, cool vintage :) which camera do you use?
You need an electric scooter.
They could spruce it up with just some fresh paint 🤷🏻♀️
Been to Japan many times and never seen anything as run down as this 😂. I hope you don’t always eat like that
Hot water 👍
Pajamas 👍
I don't like hotel doors that open outwards; it's unsafe. 😂
Geeze Louise, a can of beer in my city in Canada costs $3.45!
looks like you had a good time thats all that matters
You Need to get yourself a "Black Light and glasses" to Actually SEE WHAT YOU'RE SLEEPING ON FRIEND.
No joke Either
This ain't gordon ramsey hotel hell lmao
I think that is the same hotel Abroad in Japan's Chris and CdawgVA's Connor chickened out and left after seeing their room... I think it looks cool
That room looks like a place to take a person for an interrogation
在日本無人販賣機林立即現可吃矣～就只怕荷包口袋無錢咩 ~🤗
if i turn up there an ask for a room in English would they server me or turn me away ?
Just a caual DC2 Type R parked out front.
12:34 why didn't you get the Niigata pasta dish you wanted but couldn't get at the motel?
Hotel looks abounbed vending machine place not bad. Just need some work on them
Simple life
Lol heartbreak hotel
I have definitely stayed in worse
@11:15. Comb?
Disappointing that you had to fly there and they have so little to offer. Im guessing their customers are mostly truck drivers who just want a cheap room.
🇯🇵🙏
deerishus....
Don't you guys drink water during having any food
👀
It is comforting to know that you can still find a plain old hotel in Japan that is not some 21st-century, sterile, magna-strewn, overpriced nightmare.
