YOTEL London Shoreditch

YOTEL, a global hospitality brand appealing to those looking for a unique experience through awesome people, smart design, and the creative use of technology, announced today the addition of YOTEL London Shoreditch. The former East London Hotel will be re-branded as a YOTEL opening April 2022. This property marks the group's fifth city centre hotel in the UK, the fourth franchise property, the second UK hotel conversion and the nineteenth hotel in operation globally.

The 161-room hotel, conveniently located in the heart of vibrant East London, on Cambridge Heath Road, already incorporates some of YOTEL's minimalistic design features and facilities. As part of the conversion, the property will receive a light refurbishment to incorporate YOTEL's signature design and technology features. Guests will be able to check-in in under a minute on self-service stations at Mission Control and will be able to use their mobile devices as SmartKeys.

The hotel is ideal for both business and leisure travellers, featuring several room types, from double and twins, to family and interconnecting rooms. Accessible via the high street and hotel lobby, the hotel also features its own beautifully designed bar, restaurant, and co-working space. YOTEL London Shoreditch is owned by Crestline Investors Inc. ("Crestline") and Avelios Investors ("Avelios") and will be managed by Michels & Taylor.

The hotel will be run under franchise by Michels & Taylor, one of Europe's leading hotel management and advisory businesses. Peter Hales, Managing Director of Michels & Taylor Hotel Management, comments: "We are delighted to be running our first hotel under the YOTEL brand. The innovation and quality of the brand will add significant value to the hotel's operation, and we look forward to working closely with all the YOTEL team in the coming years".
