The Schiphol site, YOTEL’s third property after the first two in the UK, will be located inside the airport terminal after passport control. At London Heathrow, a 32-cabin YOTEL will open within Terminal 4 in next month.
IFA IFA Hotels & Resorts is partnering with the Schiphol Group on the Netherlands project.
Talal Jassim Al-Bahar, Chairman and Managing Director of IFA HR said:
“The concept of YOTEL is ideal for major transportation hubs and urban destinations that host a strong mix of leisure and business visitors.”
The airport sees over 44.2 million passengers passing through it per year.
The first of YOTEL’s pioneering, luxurious cabin hotels opened in London in July 2007, within London Gatwick Airport’s South Terminal building.
It looks like a cross between Japanese pod hotels and business-class air travel.
Other international locations, in addition to this first air-side location at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, are already under negotiation and are expected to be announced soon, a statement said.
The next-generation cabins come fully equipped with desks, free WiFi and wired internet access, workstations and ‘techno wall’ entertainment systems.
