Newest easyHotel Taking Bookings for Heathrow

Where: Heathrow Airport, London, United Kingdom

November 18, 2008 at 4:05 PM | 2 Comments

Last we heard about the easyHotel Heathrow, it should have been open already--October, in fact--but now it’s just started taking bookings for a January 1, 2009 opening.

In the tradition of easyHotels this one is cheap and, well, tight. If you want to watch TV, need an extra towel or want to use the internet, you’ll have to pay extra for everything. But the room itself: just £25 ($37) per night, or at least that’s their opening special price. Being at Heathrow is obviously handy if you’ve got an early morning flight or are transiting to somewhere else in Europe.

The biggest catch that we see with easyHotels is not that you have to pay something for all the “extras”. No, we’re more concerned about the damage done by surrounding yourself with this frightening orange color. Can anyone sleep with those walls?

    How can orange be frightening!

    Hi Amanda

    Ha ha, thanks for the comments, but how can we help with this orange phobia you have!!!!

    I think you will be pleased to hear that we are 'developing' the look of the hotel rooms, and in fact have a great new prototype room for new developments which is different - still looks great but a bit less 'orangy' and with more hanging space and storage.

    Also you may not have seen the new style planned for our first 'easyHotel in the Sun' hotel in Larnaca:

    So, we do try to listen although orange is STILL our favourite color!

    Regards
    easyHotel

    I love orange. It's actually the reason for my avatar (although that is The Standard WeHo's sink). Viva l'arancia!
