So let's set the scene: a guest checks out at 9 am, and the next one checks in at 7 pm.
That’s a 10-hour window (minus cleaning time) where your room could be put to good use.
Day use, anyone?
Becoming a popular concept during the pandemic, the day use of empty rooms allows people to utilize the space for their own needs, earning you extra cash and a talking point amongst those within the circle.
Dayuse.com is a leader in this space, but new players like Nappr and ResortPass are also making waves.
Nappr caters to those needing a quick nap during the day, while Resort Pass offers access to amenities like rooftop pools and spas without requiring an overnight stay.
These services attract diverse guests, from business travelers needing a quiet workspace to locals seeking a mini staycation.
Day use also boosts your hotel's visibility and reputation, showcasing your amenities and service to a broader audience.
They both also raised a lot of money from VCs, which is used mainly for customer acquisition. This is a great leverage opportunity.
