I rather enjoyed my stay here as I had an overnight layover at Heathrow! My room for one person was perfect and it literally had everything I needed in a space that only had room for me to literally twirl around as everything was one step away! It had a TV, a bed perched up like an upper bunk bed, a gold-out step to get up into the bed, great lighting, fold-out table, luggage nook, plenty of plugs, shower, shower products, sink, toilet, towel, towel hook, trash can, fold-up chair. You can have coffee and hot chocolate anytime, and they have food they can warm up for you. I had been in Spain for 5 days eating yummy tapas but having Hong-style noodles was what I wanted - perfect! I borrowed a hair dryer too. Everything was so well thought out for your comfort, and it sure beats sleeping on an uncomfortable airport chair or trying to figure out the train into London when you are tired and just want to have somewhere to shower and lay down in comfort for awhile. read more

Really enjoyed my stay at yotel! I had a 15 hour layover after taking a euro trip with 7 other friends so this quiet little hotel space was just what I needed. The room was perfectly sized for one, and had all of the essentials you needed for a night. I'll admit it was a little difficult to find since it was tucked away in a different terminal than where I landed but everyone at heathrow was very helpful. The front concierge (Marta) was really helpful and was quick to offer me the free hot chocolate and coffee which was really necessary for me! Although I don't want to have another 15 hour layover, if I were to ever have one again, I would definitely stay at yotel again! It's reasonably priced and sure beats sleeping at the terminal! read more

What a cool experience...I honestly felt like the bed was about to blast off into outer space! Yotel is a master of efficiency with their limited space. Every inch is perfectly accounted for, so you're paying for a good night's sleep - not a bunch of drawers and things you don't need. It's hard to believe you're in the middle of a huge international airport, because it's a completely peaceful place to rest. Definitely recommend trying this unique "Yotel" in the heart of Heathrow Airport. It's an affordable, but fun option for travelers who need just a one night stay before a morning flight. Pro Tips: - Grab a meal before you come into your room, because there are only a few small snacks available - They provide earplugs and few other modest toiletries! read more

I really love this place and wish they were available everywhere! The beds are comfortable, the space is clean, and the staff is friendly. It's super affordable for an overnight layover and really quiet. Don't come here if you're looking for all the bells and whistles as it's really just a place to sleep and shower in between flights...providing the essentials of course. Only downside is that terminal 4 is a bit of a haul from terminal 2, including going in/out of customs for international layovers. Something like this would be dreamy inside of all international terminals...but I'll keep dreaming! read more

Second time in a Yotel hotel (first was in NYC) and I still LOVE IT. If you have a long layover in Heathrow and want nothing more than a bed to take a quick nap in, Yotel is the answer. When I first booked my tickets and found out I had 14 hours to kill in Heathrow I was a little unimpressed. But, after finding out that there was a Yotel I could rest in, all my disappointments faded away. I booked my room in advance for 6 hours (I suggest you do this because they fill up fast) and popped on over as soon as I landed. Check in was super fast and efficient, free coffee/tea/ho-cho available and delivered to your door, and awesome tiny yet efficient rooms. The room had a bed, tv, table, storage space, and full bathroom (pics attached). Although super tiny it definitely does the job. The bed was super comfortable and shower was great. I would most definitely stay here again. Stay here - I promise you won't regret it! read more

What a great idea. For a single traveler or an intimate couple a small hotel room in the airport is very convenient. I had he deluxe room, slightly larger for a few pound more. It was certainly small but did not feel as claustrophobic as some reviewers describe it. I suppose that it is a matter of personal taste. THE GOOD The bed is comfortable and the shower is a decent size. The price is also right, especially for the convenience of not having to leave the airport. The reception has a few snacks for purchase too. The lighting and design makes for an outer space feeling. The staff is helpful. THE BAD The ventilation is poor. The night that I stayed, a neighboring room (pod?) was being painted and the fumes from the paint were so strong that it was hard to sleep. Very little fresh air to dilute the fumes. Also, it is too bad that the hotel is "outside" of security. I left the airport briefly anyway so it wasn't inconvenient but for those looking for a quirky rest, the idea of going through immigration again is a nuisance if traveling international. read more

Delivers what it expected of Yotel. It's a very comfortable transition between flights with long layovers or overnight. We stayed here overnight and we were very comfortable. We arrived in the late afternoon from San Francisco... and our departing flight towards Lyon, France was 0700 the next day. The room reminded me of a small cabin in a cruise ship or a large version of a first class pod in a dream liner hehehe. All space is utilized well. Here are photos of our room. I hope it helps with gauging the scale of the room. One thing I hope they do add is a bath mat to step on something dry after showering. We spent £90.xx for the stay. read more

I flew Business Class on Delta from BOS and was given a pass to use the Yotel in Terminal 4 for one hour. My first experience with this "cabin" style hotel was fine as far as it goes. Easy to find and check in with friendly desk staff. I was assigned one of the standard cabins which was essentially like an overnight train compartment except the shower and toilet area was only separated by a curtain, not a door. The shower was good with plenty of water and with one of the "rain shower" shower heads. A little tight fitting in the small bath area but adequate for the purpose. WiFi was complimentary and fast. The Flat Screen built in TV was good and allowed a quick check of the weather. Not a place I would stay overnight but more than adequate to clean up and relax after a trans atlantic flight. I miss the Sky Club showers but this was OK. read more

Believe it or not. I intentionally book YOTEL just out of curiousity. It's located inside London Heathrow (Terminal 4) for passengers with long delays and overnight stays. It's a modern cubicle hotel. You get to choose double, single or two large single bed. I chose the double. The size is 3.6m x 2.5m. All cabins comes with free internet access, flatscreen TV, showers that comes with shampoo and body wash. It's comfortable, clean, smoke-free and convenient for professional travelers. They have closets to put away your belongings. You can also order food to be delivered to your cabin. I like interactive lighting and I was told of their interesting windows. It feels like a 5 star hotel yet affordable. Though space is limited. But for a short stay I think it's good enough. Minimum booking is 4hrs. Have your credit card ready because they don't take cash. Everything is done electronically. Recommended that you should book online. Otherwise, you'll have to check-in at the kiosk. read more

Awesome. Best money spent on trip. Great way to spend a long layover. Staff was helpful. Booking online was easy. Very comfortable. Two people in a queen room. Everything you need. read more

I was really dreading this overnight layover until I found out about Yotel! It's GREAT - I wish more airports had one! The shower is great, bed is firm/comfortable, free WiFi, great lighting,clean, friendly staff... it was pretty quiet during my stay, and even though I had to take the train (free) from terminal 3, it still saved WAY more time and money than if I had to leave the airport for another hotel. I would happily book another flight with a long layover at Heathrow thanks to Yotel. :D (Someone complained about the strong smelling body wash / shampoo, but I really like it - am even considering buying a bottle for home!) read more

This micro hotel is absolutely perfect for your short layovers or for getting to your early-morning flight on time. Since the first tube will only get you to Heathrow after 6, why not stay here from 11 pm the night before your early flight? I had a 6-hour layover between international flights and was dead tired - this place was incredible. Soft purple lighting, just the right temperature, a soft and cozy bed. I slept like a baby. You can order tea to your room, and wi-fi is included. I stayed in the single room and it was fine for one, but definitely get a queen if there are two of you. On my second visit, I got upgraded and the queen felt like the lap of luxury. Really, I can not express how relaxing I found my stay. There need to be more Yotels. I'd give this 6 stars if I could. read more

Yotel is a nice concept and should be available in more airport. ROOM: I am in Heathrow waiting for my flight. I booked a Standard Room (cheapest option) the room is small, but this is not important. The facilities include a "bathroom", a desk+chair and obviously a bed and a TV. INFO BOOKLET: The small booklet (already in the room) gives you info about the food you can order, transfer information, info about the cabin itself, how to use the remote control etc. The booklet is quite help, but to be honest everything is straightforward. WELCOME GOODY BAG: Another surprise was the small goody bag. OMG i was sooo happy when I saw this. On the bed there was this white bag with two clementines, one 100g Dark Chocolate, two 5cl Gordon's Gin (as if one wasn't enough), and one pudding from waitrose. I was very surprised. Its a very nice welcome gift. WIRELESS: To use the internet you just need to type in your last name + booking reference. TV: You have following options: 24 TV Channels, Cinema Movies, Music & Radio, TV internet, TV email, Yotel Services 24 Channel at this time were: BBC One, BBC Two, ITV1, Channel4, FIVE, SKYNEWS, BBC NEWS 24, FILM4, ITV2, ITV3, ITV4, More4, E4, TMF, The Hits, Yesterday, FiveLife, FIVEUS, Dave, Sky Three, BBC THREE, CBBC CHANNEL, and CBeebies. (writing this, in case you don't wanna miss a certain show while you're here) Film at this time were: (they show a trailer first and then you can choose) Transformers: Dark of the Moon, The Dilemma, Paul, No Strings Attached, Despicable Me, True Grit, Little Fockers, The King Speech, Charlie St. Cloud, Rango, Megamind,Seasons of The Witch, The American Cowboys and Aliens, The Adjustment Bureau, Bridesmaids, Limitless, Senna, Kung Fu Panda 2, Fast and Furious 5, Hop, Hanna, Thor, and Super 8. (writing this, just to have an idea what they were offering on the 24th Dec. 2011 when I checked in...I think its a good selection of movies even though I saw most of them) HINT (things I didnt know): 1. Towels are available in Yotel, so don't worry about that. I seriously thought I have to carry mine... 2. Iron, Hairdryer , extra towel, washbag, earplugs, adapter etc. available at the front desk so if you forget any of those things, dont worry again. 3. You can leave and come to your room anythime you want, in case you are hungry you can eat in the Terminal and then go back....so you dont have to select from the Menu they have... Its basically just like a hotel read more

This place is a traveller's dream. I had a nine hour layover in Heathrow, and thanks to Yotel, I was able to rest, shower, and greet my loved ones feeling mostly refreshed. The rooms are small, obviously, but that's the idea. The overall experience is like being on a cruise ship. The bed (in a single) is in a recessed cubby, and there is a widescreen TV at its foot. There is a fold-down table as well, and a bathroom complete with shower, towels, and all the amenities. Extra towels and a hair dryer are available on request. This place was like a breath of heaven to me on a long journey, and I can only hope that more airports include similar oases. They make a world of difference when travelling. read more

I really enjoyed both times I've stayed at Yotel. I stayed in the larger rooms both times, and it was easily big enough for my wife, myself and all our luggage. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was excellent, and the room had tons of little touches such as anti-fogging sections of the mirror. The staff is friendly, responsive, eager to please. Most of all, the rooms are VERY clean. The biggest benefit of all is being mere steps away from the luggage carousel and being able to shower, sleep, or drink complementary coffee and tea. I wish there was a Yotel at every international airport! read more

We flew in from the West Coast of the US and had a connecting flight to Europe 24 hours later so we really needed a place to drop our stuff, shower and then try to see a few sights, all while getting acclimated to a vastly different time zone. We booked a Premium cabin because there were two of us. If you want a real luxury stay, book as an individual if you feel the single rooms would be too small for you. Take a look on YouTube at the videos that people have posted of the rooms to decide for yourself. We found them helpful. Getting to Terminal 4 from Terminal 1 was a little confusing, since we were a bit bleary eyed, but after realizing we'd gone the wrong direction on the shuttle train, we got off and went the right way round. One you get into Terminal 4 it's very easy to locate if you look for Wetherspoons. It was a small room by it's nature but if you are close to your travel partner and get on well it's not an issue. There is a curtain that can be pulled in the bathroom to give some privacy as needed. Plenty of mirrors give the room a larger feel. The linens were soft, the lighting could be made relaxing or bright as needed. It felt like our little cocoon which was very welcome after a 10 hour flight cramped up in economy. The power shower was very relaxing. The soaps provided were refreshing. We obtained a hair dryer from the attendant at the Galley. If you are a duo, ask for a second bath towel as they only provide one. The wifi worked with our iPhone flawlessly and we were able to call home using the Skype app we downloaded. Access to the Picadilly Line on the Underground was easy and literally 30 feet from our room was Wetherspoon's pub that served a very good full English breakfast. Food is available at the Yotel's galley but we chose to eat in London for dinner and with Wetherspoon's right next door, there was no point to order from the Yotel. Some have complained that the sound of other people talking or toilets flushing was disturbing. We noticed a few people talking briefly as they walked past our room, but there's a vent or fan that creates white noise in the room so the interruption was minimal and we were so tired we slept soundly. For what you get, the price was quite reasonable and since we were flying out of Terminal 4 the following day, the location was superb. The Yotel/Wetherspoons combo was such a success, I will repeat it every time we go to London. read more

I was totally discombobulated at Heathrow trying to get to the correct terminal that I missed my flight. Not wanting to head back into London, I hunkered down at the Yotel inside Heathrow until my flight left for the Middle East the next morning. Although it was a tiny room--think of it as a smaller train compartment that included a toilet and shower. It had cable, wireless, so you could pass the time away easily. Reasonable cost for what it was. I would definitely do it again, if I was passing through London for a brief stretch but wanted to take a quick nap and shower. Very convenient--I wish other airports had something similar. read more

As I walked past the other people who spent their overnight layovers trying to get comfortable on hard benches in terminal 4, my tiny little room beckoned to me. It's all the space I need, I enjoyed the modern coziness. My only warnings are that if you get in on a late flight and are delayed for any reason it's a $30+ taxi ride from Terminal 1 to Terminal 4. The tube and busses stop before midnight. In the morning the air in the compartment smells vaguely of plane exhaust, and if you're planning on using the 24hr take-out menu, let's hope you like ham & cheese paninis or frozen pizzas. All in all, a nice, novel experience. read more

I stayed here earlier this week when I had a 12 hour layover in Heathrow coming back from Africa. I made my reservation in advance (glad I did - I wouldn't have been able to get a room otherwise), and was really excited to try it. Check in process was simple - though they had a security person who you must sign in with before they let you through the doors. I checked in, and the front desk guy made me a complimentary hot chocolate while I waited for them to finish cleaning the room. Once inside, its pretty simple - the room has a double bed (that retracts via controls on the bedside table), good lighting (controlled via the controls on the bed), tv, retractable table, chair, nice bathroom (the sink in particular is quite nice) and a shower. Everything was spotlessly clean - I basically got there, collapsed and slept for 6 hours, woke up and showered and left. The bed was comfy but is a very firm mattress, linens were nice. Rain shower head was a nice touch, though the complimentary body wash/shampoo, while organic is pretty strong smelling and very drying. You check out by turning in the key and you are on your way. The only downside I see is that you have to transfer terminals - the Yotel is located in Terminal 4 and Terminal 5 is the international arrivals area. So technically you have to go back through security to use it. I think every airport should have a Yotel!! read more

I wish that all airports had hotels inside of them. It truly makes life so much easier when you have a long overnight layover, traveling at odd times, or just need a place to rest for longer layovers. I booked a single cabin and it was the perfect size for one. It had everything I needed for my overnight stay and was clean & comfortable. I booked in advance online and ended up paying $90 USD. One weird thing was that the toilet and bathroom are all connected in one room. I had to reposition the shower head so that it didn't soak my entire toilet area. The entire bathroom will end up having a wet floor, but if you're staying in a place like this in-between flights, you're most likely not looking to take extra long showers in the most luxurious bathroom. If I find myself with another overnight stay in Heathrow, I'll be sure to book Yotel again. read more

This hotel is located in Terminal 4 near the prayer room. It was 90 USD for six hours for a premium room for two people. Hot drinks including tea, coffee and hot chocolate were free, as well as bottled water. The room is compact with pretty much everything you would need. The bed could be moved from a sitting position to sleeping position, though in the flat position there is not much room to move around. There's space for luggage underneath the bed. The bathroom wall is glass but there is a curtain for some privacy. The room and bathroom did smell a little musty, as did the bedding, probably because it would be very difficult to air the tiny room. We arrived 30 minutes early and they allowed us to check in right away. Compared to the cost of a hotel day stay, this was a much better deal and more convenient location-wise. It was great to be able to rest and sleep for a few hours during our 12 hour layover. I wish other airports had a similar service. My only recommendation is maybe air freshener in the room. read more

You get exactly what you paid for at the Yotel! The very definition of 'serviceable'. Getting there: A bit tricky to find this place, particularly if you're coming from another terminal. You can take one of the Tfl (Transport for London) buses for free from Terminal 5 (International arrivals) to Terminal 4 (where the Yotel is) - just ask at the info desk. Once you get to Terminal 4, keep walking to the right, up some stairs, and into a sort-of creepy-back hallway. [Note: this may be because I arrived at 11pm!] If you're having trouble, look up - there are signs near the ceiling that have the Yotel logo, though it's a bit hard to see. The logistics: Easy check-in, then you walk over slightly water-damaged carpet to your cubby of a room. You'll feel like you're in a submarine. Check-out was just walking out the door and handing your key in - super easy. The room itself: Perfectly clean. Very purple. Barely any room to move around (but what did you expect?). Great Internet, and a TV if you're so inclined. No toiletries provided - though they might have had at the front desk if you asked, which I did not. The bathroom is separated from the sleeping area by only a shower curtain - so watch your shower splashing. Why 4 instead of 5 stars: Navigation was difficult but not impossible; first impression with the water-damaged hallways was not great; no provided toiletries. But again, you get what you pay for! read more

Great option for someone traveling at odd times or looking to stay for less than a full night. We arrived later in the evening (23:00) so we chose to stay here rather than battle with commuting to the city. The room is very small (we booked a premium cabin for 2) but has everything you need and they do not shy away from telling you it's small. It was a bit noisy with people coming and going and the toilets flush very loudly, but we just turned on the white noise on our phone and powered through. The water from the shower makes its way around the toilet and with the bathroom being so small you have your feet in water while using the toilet if you showered recently. Wish the shower closed off better or was graded more toward the drain. Getting there from terminal 3 was a bit of a chore as the normal bus wasn't running that late. Had to work our way to the Heathrow Express and ride that to Terminal 4 but it was free at this time. Just wish they would have told me better how to get there. I had emailed them to ask and they told me to take the Connector bus that would run until 23:30 so that's what I planned. Turns out it only runs until 22:30 which is why we had to take the other route. We didn't need to get up early to leave so if I had to do it over again I would have booked a proper hotel that night. But this place would be perfect if you arrived late and wanted a short stay or something that a normal hotel couldn't offer you (can book by the hour here). Would stay here again if the timing made sense but for a proper night I would probably look toward a full service hotel. read more

Much quieter and friendlier staff than Paris' airport location. What can I say these yotels and hotels inside airports are lifesavers for travelers like me who need to actually lay down to sleep between long flights. I feel 100% now! The check in clerk (George) was so nice and helpful he carried my bags and gave me all kinds of free food and drinks. I wish customer service was like this at their other locations, when I went to the Paris' airport yotel earlier this year the girls working there weren't as helpful and friendly. read more

I am sitting on the bed in my standard room at Yotel as I write this review. It is my first experience with Yotel and it's been good. I decided to stay at Yotel because I flew into London a little earlier than my travel buddies, and I just wanted a place to stay for the night -- nothing fancy, or out of my way. Yotel is conveniently located in Terminal 4, the terminal at which my flight arrived. It was very easy to find and the self-service kiosk for check-in was flawless. I requested, by e-mail in advance, for a room away from the 'Galey' with a lower bunk bed, and my request was fulfilled without a problem. I came here knowing and expecting that it will be a small room, especially the standard room, but boy, I was still in awe of the small size. (It is also my first experience with pod hotels.) I'm sitting in the corner, on my bed, and everything is within 2 metres of reach. I am not even going to bother opening my big suitcase here... But it does have everything that I need for a good night's sleep -- comfy twin-sized bed with clean linens and towel, free WIFI, a TV with many channels, a mirror, a pull-out table, a clean toilet and shower. Other things to note is it can become very cold overnight due to air conditioning, and with other guests checking in and out at ungodly hours, you can hear banging of doors and flushing of toilets... For the size, I do have to say...it is quite expensive to stay here. But I know I am paying for the cleanliness and the convenience of its location, and it is London after all! read more

A perfect room for someone with a layover! The man at the front desk was VERY helpful. My flight arrived an hour late, so I was half an hour late to my booked time, but the gentleman offered me an extra complimentary hour because of the flight's delay. He also kindly guided me out onto the bus to get to Terminal 5, as I was a bit panicky that I wouldn't reach in time (thankfully, I did). The room itself is very comfortable - the bed is lusciously soft, and very cosy. I will definitely be coming here again during my next layover! Also - complimentary hot chocolate!! What's not to love?! read more

Yotel is a fine solution for travellers needing a place to rest on a layover, or who, like I did, arrive at the crack of dawn and don't want to show up on a friends' doorstep at 6 am. Not really a capsule hotel though inspired by that Japanese concept, Yotel is more like a sleeping car on a train. Extremely efficient use of space, no windows, but a full bed, private shower and toilet. While reserving and check-in is all automated, there is a human being at reception to help with any problems, provide a hair dryer or iron, or even sell you food and beverages. Price is right - 25 pounds for four hours, a bit more to spend the night. If you aren't flying in to Terminal 4, it's a bit of a pain to get here, although probably better than the "Hotel Hoppa" that goes to the hotels on LHR's perimeter. The room could have been a tad cleaner, and the rooms aren't soundproofed so there's a constant chorus of doors closing. But these are minor quibbles (and the front desk will provide ear plugs) and overall, I highly recommend Yotel if you find yourself need a place to crash at Heathrow. read more

For what it is, the hotel is fine, but I have honestly experienced better when I had a long layover in NRT. We got the room that accommodates 2 and I think it ended up being about 160-170 USD. There was much to be desired when we walked in. It was definitely a cramped space not much to do other than sleep and shower. The "monsoon" shower is nothing more than a rain shower and there was nothing particularly unique about it. Because the shower and toilet and bathroom are all connected when you take a shower, the entire bathroom will have a wet floor. Carpet could use some replacement as well. Bed was not as comfortable as I would have hoped, but I guess if you're super tired it'll do. Also this is located in Terminal 4. Our inbound and outbound flight flew out of Terminal 5. This meant a couple of things. First, we had to deal with a bus and 3-4 stops to get to and from the terminal that we actually needed. Second, terminal 5 has much more selection in terms of food and drink compared to terminal 4. Because of the airport fee that is associated with uber pick ups (12 pounds), it can be costly when trying to find real food since the hotel only has frozen food type dinners. The redeeming feature is free hot and cold drinks (water, tea, coffee). But really not too persuading after all. If I had known about the other hotels in terminal 5 I probably would've gone that route as they are of the more traditional hotel you'd be expecting. read more

The first airport hotel I've ever stayed in! What's more convenient that actually staying inside the airport near your terminal?! Stayed here during a 12 hour layover from London to San Francisco and it couldn't have been better. Obviously the rooms are smaller than what you would get at a hotel but you could make it work. I wasn't allowed to check in my luggage as the flight was the next day so it did make the room more cramped than it should have been since I had a 50 lb bag in there. There's wifi and also a shower to freshen up and a bed! Simply cozy. Just FYI I missed my flight home because I decided to stay in the room until boarding and apparently I had to recheck in as it was a new day. FML. read more

The location is in terminal 4 which was where my flight was leaving. Very clean and the people were helpful. It is what it is but the bed was not the most comfortable. read more

The best overnight anywhere!! Polite, friendly staff even though they had to work on Boxing Day (the Tube wasn't even running!!) and people were stuck at the airport. Close to restaurants and morning bus pick up for connecting flight. Super ergonomic yet comfortable rooms. Best mattress ever, anywhere. I wanted to take it home!!! The only thing they might have done better at Heathrow was put it in the international terminal! read more

A small little cabin tucked away in tha quietest corners of the airport. What more do you need to escape the hustle and bustle of the busy airports? Delta offers complimentary yotel stay of 2 hours to business elite passengers. I feel this is much better than the lounge because you get your own little bed... which is enough for two really, a stand up shower, nice flat screen tv, complimentary wifi and free coffee and tea. I didn't try the latter so can't comment how good it tasted. However just my two hours at yotel with a hot water shower to refresh me, completely rejuvenated me. I was out of a 9 hr flight and waiting to board another 9 hr flight and the stay at yotel was bliss. Can't ask for more. It is just a little too pricey though considering that they charge by hours. Else it's perfect. I wouldn't mind staying in their lovely cabin even for a week when on business travel except of course this would be more expensive than hyatt and Marriotts read more

I recommended Yotel to my friend who was returning from her first-ever trip to Europe. She changed her booking a couple days in advance. Despite sending my friend an email that her booking had been successfully changed, Yotel never changed her booking. She arrived and they were at full capacity. She was turned away. So she spent the night wandering Heathrow. I feel totally humiliated that I recommended Yotel. read more

Such a great retreat for a restless traveller who had been dealing with cancelled flights and a long layover. The concept is great and the concierge was super helpful and friendly. Beds were comfy but I was still weary of getting under the comforter (I'm a bit of a germaphobe). Tv selection is great and right by a 24 hour m&s market. Rested for 8 hours before boarding the coach bus from gatwick to Heathrow right outside the terminal. Left yotel and saw tons of travelers sprawled out on chairs and floors - immediately did not regret my decision. read more

Small room, but who cares? My husband and I had a long layover in between flights at Terminal 4 so we rented a room in the Yotel. Comfy bed, TV, wifi, and a nice shower made for an excellent layover on a 26 hour trip. It was perfect for a much needed layover nap. Loved that you rent by the hour. I'd rent just to take a hot shower! I heard some hallway noise, but nothing disturbed my sleep. read more

The novelty wore off in about 5 minutes, then I was faced with a restless night as the drain gurgled in cabin 26 and some machine keep humming outside. The elevator? Plus, there's no way to keep feet dry after a shower. Slightly better than sleeping in an airport lounge. read more

What an awesome concept... and especially when you have an 8 hour layover OR Heathrow gets locked down for some security issue (which is when we stayed here). The entire airport was closed. You couldn't leave or come in so we were stuck. My feelings were hurt because I had some pretty awesome plans within 4 hours of arriving. I was also extremely tired, like couldn't keep my eyes open tired and was planning on a nice dinner with friends before heading to bed to wake up on UK time. When we couldn't go anywhere someone mentioned the Yotel and it reminded of a Japanese roommate situation LOL - Its small and very pod like, but there are an abundance of channels to watch, FREE wifi (which Heathrow really lacks), and the desk has anything that you could need (or may have forgotten). No, you wouldn't want to stay here for longer than a few hours, but those hours you do spend there will be cozy, and comfortable! Also, its really cheap. Like extremely inexpensive. The 24 hour to go food menu is also really cheap. I can handle that :) read more

Everything you need during a layover on just few square meters. I swear yotels should be EVERYWHERE, fixing the constant struggle of being sleepy during long uni breaks or waiting for a bus which is very early in the morning.... But, to the point. A standard (cheapest option) room at the Heathrow Yotel had a quite comfy bed (can fit 2 persons), a bathroom with a shower, a foldable desk, a TV, and a little chair. Absolutely enough for a short stay - what else do you need than a place to nap, refresh yourself and charge your laptop? The design of the cabin is very modern and consistent - reminded me of airplane cabins and these little japanese sleep hotels (and according to the brochure these were the two main inspirations). The place was also very clean and quiet, I slept short but well. The staff was friendly - they provide you with free tea/coffee, there's also a possibility to buy water/juices/food/anything you might need. The automatic check-in machines didn't work - but I guess that's why the staff was 24/7 there. Although the cabins could be a little bit cheaper, I must admit Yotels can be a lifesaver during a long layover - I wish soon these will be a standard in every airport. read more

This small hotel was a lifesaver to me. As a result of missing a flight, I had to spend all night -- fifteen hours -- in Heathrow. Yotel was precisely what I needed and wanted, a cozy nook to rest in. It was clean, convenient, with friendly young staff, all of which relaxed me at a stressful time. Frankly, every large airport needs one of these. read more

A fantastic place to have a comfortable rest while on layover or if you find yourself stuck at the airport for hours. Beautiful rooms and super friendly staff. Brilliant concept and hope they expand to other airports. Thanks again to General Manager Mr. Peroutseas and staff for a great experience! read more
