A pair of robot dinosaurs wearing bellboy hats welcome guests from the front desk at the Henn-na Hotel in Urayasu, suburban Tokyo on August 31, 2018. – The reception at the Henn-na Hotel east of Tokyo is eeriely quiet until customers near the robot dinosaurs manning front desk. Their sensors detect motion and they bellow: “Welcome.” It might be about the weirdest check-in experience possible, but that’s exactly the point at the Henn-na (“Weird”) chain, which bills itself as offering the world’s first hotels staffed by robots.
