I want to discuss your hopes and wishes for a Hotel expansion pack in Sims 4!
Let‘s do a wishlist:
Room service I want to be able to order food to my room using room service
Functional elevators
Hotels need to have elevators with actual animations of Sims going inside. Also elevators should be a new WooHoo spot like in Sims 2. Elevators could also be an entire object you can place like a two-story elevator or three-story elevator.
Extra Large aquarium tanks I would love more luxurious hotel lobby items like a large aquarium (like Sims 2 Apartment Life) where we can display the fishes we have caught (like with smaller aquariums in Sims 4)
What are your ideas for a hotel expansion pack? Reply below!
I feel like I have answered this before, but as this is my one wish for another pack let's hope someone listens this time around and we can finally get what we need to make this type of pack awesome! For me, it's a lot less about things that are pretty in a hotel, but the functions of a pack, so here goes:
Ownable hotels I want to be able to own and run hotels, the way we can own other businesses. I also want to design my hotels to suit my needs, be it a b&b, a sleezy motel, a cabin in the woods or a large beach side resort, I want all of them to be supported. Which also means...
Multipurpose lots Without multipurpose lots, hotels are fairly useless. I want to be able to rent out a room in my sim-home, or have a resort with spa-facilities, gym, fancy restaurants, cafés and shops... For this to work we need to be able to combine lots.
Vacation activities: Owning a hotel is one thing, but visiting the hotels is just as important. They need to be able to be run by NPCs and be made functional from BB-mode, and the activities while there needs to be satisfying and in depth. As much attention to running a hotel and experiencing one needs to be made. Activities for different kinds of holidays, honeymoons, winter vacations, nature vacations, sun and relax vacations...
Aspirations and traits I want aspirations and traits connected to owning a hotell and travelling, from the explorer type to the resort luxury type aspirations.
Updated pools Slides, trampolines, pool toys, pool bars, submersible hot tubs that can be in the ground or in the pool.
Updated buffet table Where you can choose dishes, that adjust to time of day (breakfast, lunch, dinner), and that works automatically on hotel lots.
Hobbies and ability to set upclasses I'd love the ability to set up lessons and classes for activities and hobbies. Like pottery classes (with new pottery skill) or painting/archaeology/woodworking/knitting classes or whatever else.
Updated museums Updated museums with more activities and a new base game career as a museum curator. Ability to give or take guided tours in museums. Souvenirs and poster and post-card versions of paintings or local attractions (from all worlds) that can be bought in museum gift-shops and collected.
Cross-pack combability
Get together: club activities for travelling or running a hotel.
Cats and dogs: the ability to allow or disallow pets at the hotel
Laundry day: laundry service at the hotel
Jungle adventure: archaeology artefacts in more worlds, rather than just one. (Ancient roman in Tartosa, medieval European in Windenburg, ancient japanese in Mt Komorebi...) No need for their to be a full adventure, but things that could be dug up and authenticated. Replicas sold as souvenirs.
Growing together: Milestones connected to travelling and/or owning a business. First trip to another world. Vacationed in... Travelled the globe (after/if all worlds are completed).
Horse ranch: The ability to rent out horses, or house horses that aren't yours in a stable, or run a riding class teaching others to ride. Group rides where they ride together.
Would be lovely to get new activities, new stuff like golf, or pedal boat rides, or kite flying. I would love if sims could lounge on the sun lounger and read a magazine or a book, or even write in journal or do homework or file their nails sitting like that. Maybe they could bring back the magazine rack and newspaper stand. Also, bring back hammocks.
Hotels top my EP wish list. I'm really hoping we get them next year. Things I want in this pack beyond the ability to visit and/or own a hotel.
Pool items- pool bar, pool slides, more splash park items
Food options- long buffet table with ability to set up for different meals. I want to be able to serve breakfast. A floating breakfast tray. Room service. Ability to set up an icecream social and an afternoon tea.
Resort activities- ability to schedule resort activities such as a pool side party with dancing and maybe treats like smoothies and pool side activities, maybe hoola hoops. Some sort of crafting option maybe guest can create ceramics or flower crowns. Mini golf
Ability to run an on-site restaurant and gift shop. The gift shop could be click able stands that sims purchase items from provided it gives the option for some unique souvenirs.
Photography- updated family and couples poses to help remember those honeymoons and family trips.
Location- something with a beach. Having a mountain neighborhood with activities like tubing sort of like snowy escape but with warm weather activities would also be cool but the other TWO neighborhoods need to be beach front. Hiking paths. Can we finally get a walk hand in hand option?
crocobaura It's so absurd that they can't do anything in a sun-lounger but tan. I mean they can't even speak while in a sun-lounger, while they can talk just fine while writing an essay. Seriously? All sun-lounger needs a base game update where they can at the very least read and talk, but preferably also write, do homework, or knit as well. And definitely yes to a hammock, and I'd love kite-flying - preferably with an option to build our own kites alone or together. Then you need the interactions 'teach to fly a kite' and 'teach to build a kite' with adults/teens guiding kids to do these activities.
meeshwood I would love mini-golf! That would be so much fun. And I also agree that more poses for family photos would be great.
As for a world, I could forgo a world if they focused a lot on the gameplay mechanics instead. But if a world, then something that goes with all the random decor we have that doesn't really fit, like India (Goa perhaps?), or something more latin american, that could work with jungle adventure (a livable Selvadorada town with beaches and a city centre).
Yes, about the sun lounger, they could add interaction where they could at least sit cross legged on it and do some stuff. But it would be nice if they could lean back with their knees bent and read a book or something equally lazy activity, maybe do crossword puzzles in a newspaper, or play games on their phones, take pictures, listen to music, etc.
Hotels are probably the biggest thing I would want in-game right now! Basically For Rent, but make it a hotel!
I’d love to be able to place them in vacation worlds like Selvadorada and Granite Falls also, but I’d love to specific activities like other people have mentioned, room service, Aquariums (as mentioned!), ownable lots, but also the ability to categorise what kind of hotel your sim is offering or staying at. Is it a bnb, resort, hostel, etc… I’d like to choose!
And, of course, tasks and chance cards which affect your star rating!
