Business model
Hotels can sell unused space and time while weary travellers can rest and refresh without committing to an overnight stay. This service allows guests to book a hotel for less than the typical overnight stay of 20 hours. Some hotels offer stays for as little as three hours.
Hotels are capitalising on the ability to sell the same room twice in one day, simultaneously offering savings to those looking for a place to rest outside of the common check in times.
Stayr generate it's revenue by charging a service fee from the hotels.
