“Working remotely doesn’t necessarily have to mean working from home, where blurred lines between personal and professional lives can create distractions and stress,” said Stephanie Linnartz, Group President – Consumer Operations, Technology & Emerging Businesses, Marriott International.

“We are inviting guests to work anywhere with Marriott Bonvoy to help them be more productive and achieve a better work/life balance by reimagining our hotel rooms as local remote workspaces for our customers. By providing flexible booking options, our loyalty members and guests have a familiar alternative when choosing where to work.”

When asked, 42 percent of more than 400 business professionals – Marriott Bonvoy members and non-members – in the U.S. indicated they would consider working from a hotel guest room to address their current realities which include:

  • Desire to break up the day-to-day monotony.
  • Not having a dedicated workspace environment and feeling claustrophobic in small apartments.
  • No boundary between work and personal life, especially for families managing remote learning for kids.
  • Inability to focus and work uninterrupted on important presentations, projects and meetings.
  • Competing for insufficient Wi-Fi.

Customers expressed what is important to them in considering a hotel guest room as their workspace:

  • Ample desk space with a comfortable chair and plenty of nearby electrical outlets.
  • Modern space with a view and natural light.
