I've found capsule machines in a few properties lately, though not a Nespresso yet. In those cases there has just been one basic regular and decaf offering, two capsules of each.

I agree that these should become the norm as I've seldom been able to make a decent pot from the regular type of machine. But I would expect Nespresso is too expansive for most hotel chains, though I notice the Westin in Seoul actually advertises Nespresso machines in its rooms.


One problem many Americans may find difficult to accept with the Nespresso system is the small size of the cup that each capsule delivers. Trying to make a "cup" of American proportions really requires using two capsules, not one. I still find the system an improvement over my old grind and filter (and I am spending much less on coffee too)...and I drink far less coffee now, which is not a reflection on the quality, just the sensibility. Again, Europeans have a very different approach to their coffee-taking than Americans, a reason Starbucks tends to not catch on over there...save for travelling and expat Americans who really want a "grande"!
