# Women-Only Napping Cafes Japan's Qusca Sleeping Cafe Lets You Sleep and Snack By Michael Hines | Published 2013-02-21 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qusca-sleeping-cafe References: [springwise](http://www.springwise.com/life_hacks/japan-women-only-cafe-sleeping-facilities/) & [qusca-zzz](http://qusca-zzz.com/) Japan's Qusca Sleeping Cafe is exactly what its name suggests: a place where people can go and sleep/enjoy [coffee and food](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ja-hifi-caf). However, Qusca is designed specifically for working women. The cafe charges 150 JPY (around $1.50 USD) for ten minutes of use. Included in those ten minutes are a [place to take a nap](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/equinox-sleep-lab), a menu of snacks and drinks, a makeup station, a place to charge mobile devices and WiFi access. Those wanting something healthier than snacks can pay 600 JPY for a full (and healthier) meal. [Napping stations that target tired workers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airport-dimensions) are nothing new, but the Qusca Sleeping Cafe has to be one of the only places that allows you to eat, drink, do your makeup and take a nap. Here's hoping that Qusca expands stateside, and that it opens a store for men. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 45% | Activity: 62% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Women-only Napping Spaces:** Opportunity for creating more gender-specific spaces that combine rest, relaxation, and amenities for busy working women. - **Cafes with Multifunctional Spaces:** Potential for cafes to incorporate additional services such as makeup stations, charging stations, and WiFi access to enhance customer experience. - **Napping Cafes with Food Options:** Innovative concept of combining napping facilities with a menu of snacks and healthier meal options, providing convenience for on-the-go professionals. ### Where This Applies - **Hospitality:** An opportunity for hotels and resorts to incorporate women-only napping spaces and offer a range of amenities to cater to the specific needs of female guests. - **Food and Beverage:** Cafes and restaurants can explore the idea of incorporating napping spaces and providing a diverse menu to attract busy professionals looking for a convenient place to recharge and dine. - **Beauty and Wellness:** Salons and beauty establishments can explore partnerships or extensions to offer multifunctional spaces that encompass nap areas, makeup stations, and additional services for customers seeking relaxation and rejuvenation. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Vertical Nap Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/napping-pods.md) - [Standing Tranquil Napping Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/giraffenap.md) - [Sleep-Monitoring Capsule Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ntt-data.md) - [Nostalgic QSR Cafe Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-japan-kissa-mac.md) - [Nap-Inducing Lulling Robes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zzzn-sleep-apparel-system.md) - [Micro Train Platform Cafes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starbucks-japan-shinkansen-platform.md) - [Airport Sleep Stations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airport-dimensions.md) - [Bed-Filled Vietnamese Cafes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chidori.md) - [Blackout Napping Hoodies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cabeau.md)
