London is an expensive place to stay, that’s nothing new, moreover,  with the influx of new hotels since the Olympics its not any easier to find a well priced hotel room in the city. The CitizenM, is exactly what London needed. “A hotel driven by one desire: to create affordable luxury for the people. By “the people” they mean a smart new breed of international traveler, the type of person who crosses continents the way others cross streets. This includes the weekenders, the suits, fashion baggers and affair havers. The explores, adventurers and dreamers. ”

CitizenM is an innovative hotel concept and unique brand of affordable luxury that has won numerous awards since its launch at Amsterdam’s Schiphol ariport in 2008. It’s not a fancy hotel where butlers cater to your every move and there is no candle-lit, chocolate turn down service but  its attractively designed and very comfortable. The interior deco, lobby, and check-in process are super modern and cool.

Rooms are small but functional, the modern and sleek space is used effectively. The bed at the far end  span the width of the rooms and are big and comfortable. The bathrooms, although spaceship like are fine. Choose your own lighting for your shower with the interactive touch screen which controls the whole room;  lighting (and moods), TV,  free movies (yes, a large selection of free movies), blinds, etc.

Including a small courtyard with trees, the common area features different environments to lounge, work or eat.  With free wifi all over the hotel, you can work from some of the tables, use the flat-screen TV’s for your presentation or during an informal one on one meeting and if you didn’t bring your laptop then complementary Macs and printers can be found at the back behind the bar.

The canteenM is a stylish café which is open 24/7. In the morning it has a complete breakfast bar with coffee, pastries and a full english. For lunch and dinner you can grab some sushi from the fridge, try the salad bar or one of their sandwiches or go for a small selection of hot dishes.  You can also meet friends at the bar for cocktails!

It seems we are not the only ones to have been impressed by the CitizenM as they will not only be opening in Shoreditch (our favorite London neighborhood), Tower of London and St. Paul’s in London but in New York, Rotterdam, Paris… as well as Asia… and possibly Turkey!
