Yaas Hotel
The first modular building in Africa for a new generation of business travellers
Designed to meet the core needs of the modern traveller 24/7, in a seamless, friendly and straightforward way, Yaas is an innovative approach to the modern budget hotel. Situated at the heart of Almadies, one of the trendiest districts in Dakar, it employs bright, simple and colourful architecture and materials that create a simple but warm and friendly environment. Inspired by the traditional Tuareg scarf, the façade wraps around the building in layers. With economic considerations in mind, a modular approach is used to create flexible but compact internal spaces. Designed to both comfort and surprise, Yaas provides a smart yet playful experience for travellers.
