YotelPAD Miami, a 31-story hotel/condo project, is currently under construction in Miami’s downtown urban core at 227 NE 2nd Street. Stantec is providing all-inclusive architecture, interior design, and engineering services for the project.
The 327,356-sf tower will feature 222 Yotel-branded “cabins” (hotel rooms) and 231 “PADs” (condominiums). Building amenities will include a Skytop Lounge, a pool deck with a restaurant and bar, a fitness center, co-working space, and a pet spa.
An amenity deck on the 12th floor will separate the building into two distinct elements. The bottom portion of the building (floors 2-12) is the hotel and features a simple geometric design. The condominiums will be located above the amenity pad (floors 15-30) and feature floor-to-ceiling windows and balconies.

The ground level will include separate lobbies for guests and residences, a restaurant, a lounge, an organic matcha bar, and co-working space. Also included for residents are smart lockers for package deliveries, bike storage, and individual storage. Condo units will range from studios to one- and two-bedrooms and range in size from 417 sf to 708 sf.
Aria Development Group and AQARAT are the project’s developers. YotelPAD Miami is slated for completion in early 2021.
