roatel GmbH
We are a young and innovative company from Düsseldorf that offers travellers completely new accommodation options with a unique concept: Microhotels in converted ocean-going containers. Each 45-foot high cube container is converted into four identical single rooms, each measuring 7.5 square metres. We integrate all the elements of a classic hotel room in a minimal space. Each room is equipped with a cosy bed, fresh bed linen and towels, a shower, a washbasin, a toilet and a small table with seating. In addition, a smart TV and free Wi-Fi are available so that our guests can both work and relax.
The name Roatel combines ‘road’ and ‘hotel’ and sums up our business model: a well thought-out solution to the lack of overnight accommodation ‘on the road’. With a digital booking platform and a fair price-performance ratio, we offer travellers a comfortable and affordable option along their travel route.
Thanks to the increasing demand for smart microhotels, we have become a leading provider in this area. Our concept not only convinces professional drivers, who have to comply with statutory rest periods outside the driver's cab due to the mobility package, but also private and business travellers. They appreciate the opportunity to make their journey more efficient and enjoyable. Our aim is to build up a nationwide network of Roatels with committed franchise partners. The special thing about this is that we minimise personnel costs for our partners, as we take on the technical complexity through digital processes. Our tried-and-tested, market-proven business model offers franchise partners the opportunity to enter a booming market and write their own success story.
