How to get to Yotel hotel in CDG when on a non-connecting flight from Munich

I'm flying to CDG in Paris from Munich on a Monday night via Delta/AirFrance, arriving at 10:10 pm. My next flight, also on Delta/AirFrance, leaves from CDG for the US on Tuesday at 1:30 pm. However, this is NOT a connecting flight--they are two separate tickets. I found a Yotel hotel inside Terminal 2 that would be super convenient because then we don't have to deal with leaving the airport and coming back, and we'd be right near our gate. However, I read somewhere that the security for international departures closes at 11 pm each night. So my question is, can anyone tell me if I have a flight coming into Terminal 2 (it will either be 2E or 2F), do I have to go through security to get to the Yotel hotel? That's cutting it too close for comfort if I do. It seems that I have to get my passport stamped when I leave the Schengen area, but I don't know how that works since I'll be arriving on a flight from within the Schengen. How would they even know I'm leaving the country unless I had to go through some sort of additional "departure" security line as well? Can anyone with experience traveling in Terminal 2 of CDG help me figure out what obstacles I would have to go through to get to the hotel on Monday night, and if it's doable in time? I will not have any checked luggage, if that makes a difference. Thanks!

'''''Yotel
• 80 cabins, located terminal 2E-hall L (after security), for passengers connecting through terminal 2E only.''''

The above from the website http://easycdg.com/airport-guide/hotels-cdg-airport/

Did not see anything about the 11 PM security closure.

The yotel site- -http://www.yotel.com/en/hotels/paris-charles-de-gaulle-airport shows passport control between the hotel and the gates.

Perhaps contact yotel to find out what issues might exist.

You also go through passport control to get to the hotel. Their website says access is 24/7.

We did a similar thing in May -- Rome to CDG one evening about 6 p.m., stayed at the Ibis in terminal 2, CDG to SFO the next morning. No problems coming into CDG and getting to the hotel, regular departure security procedures on the way out the next day.
