CityHub is an urban lifestyle hotel brand that is reshaping the future of city stays for a new generation of travellers. We seamlessly blend cutting-edge technology, community-focused environments, and sustainable design to redefine and curate the contemporary hotel stay in the world’s most dynamic, connected cities. CityHub’s luxury pod-style hotels offer guests both the privacy of their own compact, modular Hub and the use of vibrant, premium shared spaces. Through a combination of innovative technology, guests enjoy the benefits of a modern, connected stay, but also have access to friendly CityHosts who provide ‘in the know’ insider hacks and knowledge so guests can enjoy the city like a local. Sustainability is also woven into the fabric of CityHub. From the use of repurposed, vacant buildings to a meticulous use of space that results in more than twice the number of rooms per square metre compared to a standard hotel, CityHub reduces each guest’s carbon footprint by 89% compared to the European average, without compromising on comfort or experience.
