Roatel now integrated into LKW.APP

New partnership makes it easier for truck drivers to plan their weekly rest.

Aparkado UG is expanding the LKW.APP by integrating Roatel locations in Germany. With the new partnership, truck drivers can now search specifically for Roatel micro-hotels and find suitable overnight accommodation for their weekly rest directly through the LKW.APP.

With this integration, the LKW.APP extends its existing offering for planning parking and rest periods with another important component: comfortable, driver-focused overnight options along key transport corridors.

Planning weekly rest more easily

For many professional drivers, organising weekly rest is a real challenge. In addition to a suitable parking spot, they need safe, quiet and easily accessible overnight options that fit seamlessly into the trip plan.

Roatel has specialised in exactly this need. The micro-hotels are located at selected logistics sites and truck stops, offering drivers a practical alternative for legally required rest periods outside the vehicle.

Thanks to the integration into the LKW.APP, users can now display Roatel locations directly on the map and factor them into their tour planning — without having to research multiple platforms or websites separately.

Extending the LKW.APP ecosystem for more predictability on the road

The cooperation with Roatel extends the existing planning capabilities of the LKW.APP into the weekly rest area. Drivers get a faster overview of available overnight options and can organise their rest periods more efficiently.

The combination of parking information, occupancy forecasts and now integrated overnight accommodation supports even more flexible and predictable trip planning.

For drivers this means less searching, more transparency and an easier way to organise the legally mandated rest periods.

Shared goal: better working conditions for drivers

Roatel and Aparkado share a common vision: sustainably improving the daily working life of professional drivers. Both companies develop digital and practical solutions aligned to the real challenges of driver life.

Integrating Roatel locations into the LKW.APP is another step toward better connecting rest, comfort and predictability on Europe's roads.
