Small rooms, big idea
Five years ago, businessman Simon Woodroffe had a good idea. He was in bed in first class on an
international flight when he decided to open a hotel. The bed in the airplane gave him an idea. He could
open a hotel with rooms like the sleeping area in an airplane.
Now travelers in some of Britain’s airports sleep in these small, low-cost rooms. The rooms are very small,
only seven square meters, but they are very convenient. They are in the airport, so travelers who want only a
night’s sleep and a shower can save money and traveling time. Woodroffe calls his hotel ‘Yotel.’
Each room has a TV, a desk and a shower and cost £50. You can pay £70 for a bigger room that has a couch.
Press a button, and the couch changes to a bed.
The small rooms are very popular with travelers. Woodroffe thinks he will open more Yotels in city centers.
