Need a quick stopover to rest your weary bones? CitizenM offers capsule hotels for the busy traveler in Amsterdam, including one just steps outside Schipol's airport.

The concept? A tiny, modern, and affordable luxury hotel room. Costs are kept low by constructing their hotels of prefabricated rooms, built off-site. Building it this way also results in a streamlined, yet well designed hotel room.

CitizenM is short for Citizen Mobile, and they aim to appeal to a modern, mobile clientele. The rooms are comfortable, and come equipped with such luxuries as a Philips moodpad that controls everything from your lighting to your wakeup call.

The lobby and lounge areas offer retreats depending on your needs and recreation. With two locations in Amsterdam, and more planned across Europe, these rooms offer affordable alternatives to a standard hotel room. Want a first hand opinion? Europe ala Carte and Happy Hotelier both share their thoughts on the CitizenM hotel.

    Looks spacious and airy for a capsule hotel. And only 39 euos a night!
