The eZONe Cyber Space Hotel, a new hotel built specifically with esports and gaming enthusiasts in mind, has opened in Osaka, Japan. Due to COVID-19, however, the hotel is only accommodating a limited number of guests.
Here’s a look at its facade. At first glance, the building already emits a modern aura that invites all gamers, professional players, and enthusiasts to come and visit.

e-ZONe’s first three floors are designed for use as a high-volume esports gaming arena. Each level is filled with high-spec PC gaming rigs, each built and designed for professional-grade gaming.
The first floor can also serve as a hall for major events and tournaments. Players can take a break on the third floor where the community space and vending machines are located.
