This new breed of petite hotel, dubbed micro hotels, is designed for the way we travel today. It all made sense. The Micro-Living Trend Checks Into Hotels.

" Playing off the popularity of tiny house and micro-apartment living, Tommie hotels feature 160-square-foot guest rooms designed for travelers who don't plan on spending their vacation holed up inside. With the first two hotels planned to open in New York City this summer and in 2016, Tommie is sort of the American equivalent of Japan's capsule hotels, where guests sleep in coffin-sized modules placed in a wall. The average size of a room will be 160 square feet, smaller than the key on a basketball court.

These hotels are designed to provide a top-notch hotel experience, but not one that happens within your room. Instead, the emphasis is placed on common spaces where guests can gather and meet each other. But it's also just a good business plan. The Micro-Living Trend Checks Into Hotels.
