<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/6193/CitMParigi.jpg" class="top"> It's been nearly 6 months since we last checked in on modern, budget hotel chain <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/citizenm%20hotels">CitizenM</a>, but of course that was only to steal a peek at the construction of their London property. Now the interest blossoms as CitizenM announce that they're doing a Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport hotel to open in 2014. 230 guestrooms will form the freestanding hotel and, the property will be a quick skip to hook up with the buses and RER trains directly heading to CDG. Not much else is known as the hotel for now; after all, it's still got a year and a half to build up and out. Rest assured that we'll keep our ears and eyes open,

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/6193/CitMLondon.jpg" class="top"> Okay, here are two painfully obvious statements: We love hotels. We love Foursquare. Thus it's only natural that when modern-but-budget hotel chain <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/citizenm%20hotels">CitizenM Hotels</a> posts a photo to Foursquare, we perk up and pay attention. How fortunate too! This week, they added a very rough construction shot of their next property in development: CitizenM London Bankside. So what can we see here? Well, apparently the underground support is all set and they're ready to begin building up some actual floors. By our last <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/1/18/105829/988/hotels/CitizenM+to+Open+in+New+York+and+London+By+2012%3B+Hong+Kong%2C+Paris+and+Zurich+Are+in+the+Works">estimate</a>, this CitizenM is scheduled for a 2012 opening, as is their first <strike>New York City</strike> United States location north of Times Square.

CitizenM Amsterdam Schiphol

Back in September, we were nearly bonkers with excitement over the announcement that New York and London would be getting their very own CitizenM Hotels. Previously, we could only experience the seriously stylish budget hotels in Amsterdam and Glasgow.

Today we've got an update on the NYC and London locations...and beyond!

A CitizenM "citizen" tells us that the two London hotels--one at Tower Hill and the other at South Bank close to the Tate Modern Museum--will open in 2012. The New York one at 50th and Broadway in Times Square will also open in 2012. Hear that? That's us going bonkers again!

Glasgow: Citizen M Glasgow Is Now Finally Open; London and NYC are Next

Yes! We’ve been waiting for a while now for citizenM to open its Glasgow property, and finally it’s here.

The citizenM Glasgow opened on Thursday and contains 198 rooms – or rather, pods – over eight floors on the corner of Hope and Renfrew Streets. It sounds pretty sexy, too – a red spiral staircase to reach the lobby, and a bar with huge windows looking out at the street below.

Don’t expect the rooms to be the same as the Amsterdam ones: the Glasgow property includes:

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/citizenmdndsign.jpg" class="top"> Last week, HotelChatter was uncharacteristically blushing at this <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2010/5/28/141129/250/hotels/The_Do_Not_Disturb_Sign_at_The_Prime_Hotel_Leaves_Little_to_the_Imagination">Do Not Disturb</a> sign from the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/The+Prime+Hotel+Miami+Beach/local/1678">Prime Hotel</a> in Miami which showed the bottom half of a woman, dressed in sexy lingerie. As it turns out, the Prime Hotel is not the only hotel who gets a little cheeky with their DND signs. <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/citizen m hotels">Citizen M Hotels</a> pointed us to this <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/alexjamesbrown/4053341423/in/photostream/">Flickr</a> photo of their own DND sign which says, "Don't come in. There's someone naked in here." The sign is accompanied by a photo of a woman clutching a pillow over her privates. If that doesn't tell housekeeping to go away, we don't know what will.Seen a cheeky Do Not Disturb sign? <a
