Five-star hotels pride themselves on offering cordon bleu food and personal service, but a hotel in Japan may offer a glimpse of the future, because it will be staffed almost entirely by helpful humanoids.
When the first guests check into at Henn-na Hotel in Nagasaki this July, they will be greeted by 10 eerily lifelike robots - and the mechanical service will not stop there.
The robots will check in new guests before carrying their luggage and cleaning their rooms – and all with a smile.

They will come from a company called Kokoro, which has been developing 'actroid' or human-seeking robots, for just over a decade, The Telegraph reported.

The robots are designed to look like and share the mannerisms as polite young Japanese women.
They will look like they are really breathing, blink and make eye contact as well as altering their body language and tone to respond to guests’ requests. Their cloth uniform also makes them look more human.

The robots will be multilingual and able to speak fluent Japanese, Chinese, Korean and English.
Three of the uniformed robots will man the reception desk, another four will act as porters, while others will clean.
An industrial robot will serve as a cloak room attendant.
While human staff will be on hand to make sure everything runs smoothly in the hotel, company president Hideo Sawada said that he hopes the robots will carry out 90 per cent of tasks in the hotel.
He told the Japan Times: ‘We will make the most efficient hotel in the world.’
Guests staying at the hotel, which is located at Huis Ten Bosch theme park in Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan, won’t need any room keys, because the doors will be fitted with face recognition technology, allowing them to access their rooms using their appearance alone.
The temperature of their rooms will be monitored with technology that detects body heat and guests will be able to call for robotic room service using a tablet instead of a phone.

The hotel, which means ‘change’ or ‘strange’ in Japanese, is set to open its doors on 17 July and has 72 rooms. It is set in a theme park that is modelled on a quaint Dutch town.
A single room will cost from £40 (¥7,000) per night and a twin room will cost from £50 (¥9,000).
However, people will be able to bid for rooms online, so the cost will likely rise if the project proves popular.
It is thought prices will be capped to match the theme park's most expensive rooms, which cost around £166 (¥30,000).
While the Henn-na will be Japan’s first hotel run by robots, androids are already working in shops and restaurants.
A club called The Robot Restaurant in Tokyo is known for its sci-fi cabaret show, featuring robotic boxers and dancers, as well as its garishly illuminated interior.
And humanoids called Nao will begin working at branches of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group from April, on a trial basis.
If the trial is successful, the robotic employees will be rolled out to more branches of the Japanese bank by 2020.

Nao has two cameras mounted on its head that act as eyes and microphones for ears. The 1ft 11in (58cm) bot also has touch sensors, can speak 19 languages and is able to read and respond to emotions, by analysing facial expressions using embedded software called NAOqi.
During a presentation in Tokyo last week, Nao welcomed customers to the bank, and asked which service they required.
A total of 1,000 'Pepper' robots are already working across home appliance stores in Japan, where they help customers looking for a Nespresso coffee machine.
Equipped with the latest voice and emotion recognition technology, Pepper is able to read people's facial expressions and listen to their tone of voice to analyse how they're feeling.
