Hotel of the future is here to stay

HOTELS never fail to evoke a sense of sanctuary and luxury for me, being snug places to retreat to after a day of work or fun. YOTEL, however, is a different class of hotel altogether.

For the unacquainted, YOTEL is a London-based, digital-first hospitality brand launched in 2007. It offers more than just a haven for rest - it is cool, fun, futuristic, inspiring and best of all, technology-led.

I discovered the brand only two years ago, after doing some research that led me to stay in YOTEL New York for a week while on vacation. It was my third visit to New York City and I had wanted a novel experience. YOTEL delivered.
