Sims 4 Hotel EP Gameplay/ Feature Ideas

Add your ideas below for a Hotel expansion pack!

Functional elevators
Every hotel has elevators and I would like to see the elevators from City Living as a functional item that has animations of Sims going in and out. (Like Sims 2 + 3) Also a possible WooHoo spot in elevators.

Pool waterfalls
A very iconic pool item from Sims 3: Island Paradise. Sims can interact with the pool waterfall by playing under it or enjoying the waterfall.

Pool tables
Hotels would be the perfect opportunity to reintroduce pool tables, an item that has been in every Sims game except Sims 4.

Helicopters
It would be really cool to have helicopters like in Sims 2 and Sims FreePlay, especially if you have wealthy Sims that own multiple hotels that live in a penthouse by the beach.

Build tool

Curved pools

The perfect opportunity to reintroduce curved pools! They have been in Sims 2 and Sims 3. Could work similar to curved rooms.

Gameplay

Own & manage your own hotels

A hotel is an ownable business like restaurants from Dine Out, except that people are staying there for the night and give ratings based on treatment, cleanliness, food and aminities like a pool, gym room or VIP lounge.

You can set individual prices for rooms, for example a suite is more expensive than a small room.

World

I really want a beachy city world in Sims 4 like Miami

There could be hotels on penthouse lots right at the beach!
  • I'd like the big buffet tables we had in TS1 and TS2. Also, what better EP for unmade beds to make a comeback than a hotel EP. Also, would be nice if sims could sit on the loungers by the pool and order cocktails. Also, an exchange office booth would be nice, so sim could exchange money.
  • The scuba diving tank from Sims 1 would be so cool! Especially since the scuba diving in Island Living is a rabbithole activity and I would really love to watch my Sims while they‘re actually underwater.

    Especially if it would function like a normal aquarium which we can customize with our own fishes.

    This gives me an idea that maybe they could give us an aquarium kit with pretty fishes and corals, rocks, plants and such that we could add to pools and enable sims to go scuba diving in pools. For extra fun, they should enable multiple levels on pools so we could have a 4 story deep pool/aquarium. Mermaids could live in them too.
  • I think there should be some hotel drama and dodgy hotels with uh "subpar service"

    (thiefs,gossip, dirty stinky rooms, maybe some uh smelly body outlines, maybe the pool is closed since the "incident" happened...)

    I would also like to manage hotels

    or even more just like work at hotel kind of active career where you can start as say cleaning lady and then get more responsibilities until you get to kick the owner out or whatever and become boss :lol:

    i also think casino would be good addition to the theme

    and i would love to be able to combine the hotel with spa or restaurant without some part of it not functioning

    some other cool activities maybe golfing or surfing or beach volleyball or something?

    i still miss hammocks too

    it would also be cool to be able to run bed and breakfast on home lot hmm

    and if theres ever pack where pool stuff would be nice maybe this theme
  • Helicopters would be amazing!

    I would love hotels like they do in Sims 2 Bon Voyage you can go on adventure or just hang out by the pool or the ocean and relax. I liked how the hotels offered tours and with the adventure the Sims knew history about the lore and the bought souvenirs to take home. Also when they returned home they felt refreshed and rejuvenated.
