10 Square meters of Luxury

Who needs all that space, all you need is your shower, your flat screen TV and a sofa/pull out bed. Yotel hits Heathrow.

They naturally compare these new hotels to the capsule hotels of Japan.

Of course as the article says, "Costing roughly 70 dollars a night (but also bookable for four-hour periods), the rooms are aimed at passengers waiting for connections or those who want to sleep or work before a meeting." I would imagine a few enterprising 'escorts' might take advantage of businessmen on layovers for some lucrative transactions at these Yotels.
