Appreciation towards CityHub for providing the following description:

CityHub位于阿姆斯特丹老西区Bellamystraat的第一家旅馆目前正式对公众开放。这家旅馆包括50个最新型的居住单元，一个以“数字化优先”为标榜的大堂以及一个帮助旅行者熟悉城市环境的APP。CityHub针对的客户是Y世代的旅行者，使他们能够在线探索、社交和分享经历。阿姆斯特丹成为“未来旅馆”的第一个落脚点。

On Friday 30 October, CityHub opens the doors to its first hotel on the up-and-coming Bellamystraat in Amsterdam’s Oud West district. With 50 state-of-the-art sleeping units, a ‘digital first’ lobby and an app that familiarises travellers with the city, CityHub has hit the nail on the head when it comes to fulfilling the needs of the travel-savvy Generation Y, enabling them to explore, socialise and share experiences online. And so, Amsterdam will be home to the first ‘hotel of the future’.

年龄介于20至35之间的数字化一代是一种新类型的旅行者，对他们来说，“探索”是旅行的关键：5星级酒店和老一套的旅游景点不在他们的考虑范围之内；他们希望从人的口中了解城市最受欢迎的热点，享受个性化的旅行体验。他们全天候在线，希望随时获得信息，很多传统的酒店无法做到这一点。通过一个城市app，一个个人主导的在线聊天平台以及独特的居住胶囊，CityHub用这些旅行业的新产品来打造全新的旅行体验。

A new kind of traveller has emerged: 20- to 35-year-old digital natives. For them, ‘discovery’ is the key: five-star hotels and stereotypical tourists spots don’t make them tick; they want to hear about the city’s hotspots from people in the know and enjoy a personalised travel experience instead. They are connected 24/7 and expect information on the go: a principle that is not optimally utilised by many traditional hotels. CityHub builds the entire travel experience around these new developments in the travel industry, through a city app, an online chat platform with a personal host, and unique Hubs in which to sleep.

CityHub为旅行者提供负担得起的住所，它兼具传统酒店的私密性和舒适性，且能营造社区归属感。旅店坐落在一间600㎡的仓库内，包括50个私人住宿胶囊，即“Hubs”。每一个胶囊都配备一张双人床，Wi-Fi以及可根据情绪调节的灯光和音乐设备，能够营造非常个性化的空间。CityHub的“Hangout”是一个宽敞的休闲区，在那里旅行者可以聚在一起，通过个人的射频识别腕带，在酒吧消费。

CityHub combines the privacy and comfort of a hotel with the sense of being in a community and the affordability of a hostel. Situated in a 600m2 industrial warehouse, the hotel houses 50 sleek private sleeping units called ‘Hubs’. Each Hub is equipped with a comfortable double bed, Wi-Fi, and mood lighting and music streaming systems that guests can personalise. The CityHub ‘hangout’ is a spacious lounge where travellers can get together and, with the use of a personal RFID wristband, can check themselves in and serve themselves at the bar.

创新APP：所有旅行需求尽在你的指尖
Innovative app: all your travel needs at your fingertips

在居留期间，客人可以获得使用CityHub APP的权限，它是一个互动的旅行指南，提供某周内发生在阿姆斯特丹的活动和事件信息。旅行者还可以在游览的过程中，实时接收来自CityHost的建议。这个APP还配有一个聊天室，让客人们可以比例联络、分享新发现的热点。除此之外，它还能控制胶囊内的灯光、闹钟和音乐设备。

为了避免不必要的数据漫游费，推动APP的使用，CityHub联手T-Mobile，为客人提供它们的MiFi移动路由器。有了这一功能，CityHub能为下一代旅行者提供更加极致的旅行体验。

During their stay, guests will have exclusive access to the CityHub app: an interactive travel guide that provides tips for activities and events based on what is taking place in Amsterdam that particular week. Travellers can additionally request real-time suggestions from a CityHost as they wander through the city. The app also offers a chat room, allowing guests to connect with each other and share new hotspots that they have found. What’s more, the app can be used to control the mood lighting, alarm clock and music streaming within the Hub.

To counteract unwanted data roaming costs and to promote the use of its app, CityHub has joined forces with T-Mobile to offer guests the opportunity to use their own MiFi Hotspot (mobile router) in the city. With this feature, CityHub is able to contribute even more to the ultimate travel experience for the next generation of travellers.

关于CityHub
About CityHub

CityHub的发起人是大学时期的好友Sem Schuurkes (32)和Pieter van Tilburg (29)。两位年轻的企业家为自身设定的目标是通过时代潮流和现代科技提升传统的旅店体验。在成功众筹到资金后，他们于2012年7月在阿姆斯特丹的老城区开设了一家试点“CityHub 测试版”。后者取得了巨大的成功，入住率高达95％，在Booking.com、Airbnb和TripAdvisor上累积到400多条热心评论。市场的积极反应让CityHub受到行业的关注，2012年它被Venuez Hospitality & Style Awards提名为当年的“荷兰最佳概念旅馆”，CityHub测试版的流行和成功为其吸引到了天使投资人和ABN AMRO，并最终在Bellamystraat开设了CityHub。

CityHub is an initiative of college friends Sem Schuurkes (32) and Pieter van Tilburg (29). The young entrepreneurs set themselves the goal of improving the traditional hotel experience in line with the current zeitgeist and technological capabilities. After a successful crowdfunding campaign, they opened a small pilot branch, ‘CityHub Beta’ in Amsterdam’s Oud West neighbourhood in July 2012. With an average occupancy rate of 95% and more than 400 enthusiastic reviews on Booking.com, Airbnb and TripAdvisor, the pilot was hailed as a great success. This positive reaction brought CityHub to the hotel industry’s attention, and it was nominated for the ‘Best Hotel Concept of The Netherlands’ category of the Venuez Hospitality & Style Awards 2012. CityHub Beta’s popularity and success also resulted in a private investor (angel investor) and ABN AMRO coming on board to help Schuurkes and Van Tilburg set up the location with 50 Hubs on Bellamystraat.

如要预约房间请到CityHub网站，住宿每晚50欧起步哟！
Hubs can already be booked via www.cityhub.com, and start at €50 per hub (for two persons) per night.
