Hotels, motels and inns - own hotels and stay in them!
Hi everyone!
I often find that my storyline would be benefited by the inclusion of hotels. I'd love to make a family hotel business with children chipping in by cleaning rooms or waiting tables.
This could definitely be enhanced by Dine Out as you could have restaurants on-site, as well as room service orders being met.
The hotel pack would need to include the need for Sims who are visiting other Worlds overnight to sleep somewhere. For example, Sally visits the park in Newcrest but it starts to get late. She can either a) find a friend to stay with in the neighbourhood, b) get a room in a hotel/inn, or c) sleep rough in the park! Making it more difficult to just pop home would be necessary to get Sims to actually have a reason to stay overnight in a World that isn't their own.
Like with Dine Out, the hotels could gain ratings and become Five Star depending on decor, client satisfaction and quality of beds etc. Areas of the hotel can be 'locked' to allow only employees, where they can do Laundry if the player has that pack, do the cooking and undertake marketing tasks like blogging or Simstagramming!
I'd love to have more input on this idea, it's something I often wish was part of my game to make storytelling improved, eg. the unrealistic notion that Sims would always travel home after a night out in a different World, rather than seeking a room to stay in. I think adding a hotel to existing and future holiday destinations would be so much fun too!
Please add your ideas :)
