There is now a hotel in the world with a dinosaur concierge. He’s also a robot. He also speaks English. He wears a cute li’l bowtie. And his coworkers are a bunch of other robots. Welcome to Henn na Hotel, aka, “Weird Hotel.”
This Friday, Japan’s Henn na Hotel (“henn na” means “weird” or “strange” in Japanese) opens its doors to fleshy, organic customers, welcoming them with chatty machines. While it’s a functioning hotel, don’t go thinking that Japan is brimming with wacky guesthouses run by extinct reptiles in animatronic form. Henn na Hotel is actually part of a theme park located in Sasebo, a city in southern Japan’s Nagasaki prefecture.
