Back in October I blogged about the "Citizen M" hotel that Philips was designing and that the first one will open in Amsterdam during 2008. To celebrate its opening the hotel is giving away 100 free rooms!. There are two ways to earn a free stay:
1. Every 100th person who registers to become a "citizen" on their site will receive a free night.
2. The author of every 100th post to the Citizen Community forums will receive a free night.
Philips is working on a fully customizable hotel concept that is designed to provide the services the consumer needs and enable the hotel operator to optimize their cost. The first implementation is scheduled to open at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam in early 2008 and is called "CitizenM Hotel" since it is created for the "Mobile Citizen".
The basic idea is that Philips will deliver pre-fabricated rooms that contain all the amenities and can be installed onsite. The rooms will provide the guest a "Moodpad" which controls the room's lighting and everything. Besides the fact that the size looks like a room in Tokyo, it looks cool and very high-tech.
