Central London may be getting the next possible Yotel location, but this won’t be another fancy high rise.
Simon Woodruffe’s Yotel chain, famous for its capsule-style rooms that are offered at hourly rates, hopes to make this particular project unique, as it will be underground.
Earlier this year, we wrote about The Kingsway Tunnels, a labyrinth of underground shafts that were put up for sale. The self-contained Kingsway Tunnels have a rich history as a reserve war room, an air raid shelter and a phone exchange during the Cold War.
The initial Yotel plan for The Kingsway Tunnels is for 100-150 capsules.
"It’s a winner for everyone from clubbers to business people who just want somewhere to have a shower and crash after a big night out. They don’t need a view or a gym or a restaurant, all of which you are paying for on your room rate at other hotels. With our rates from just £20 per person per night, staying there would work out cheaper than a cab home."
