			== Attracting bookings ==
			Hotel guests come from a regional overnight-travel market, separate from permanent tenant prospects and daytime shoppers. Your tower competes with outside hotels for a share of those travelers.

			[[Star rating\|Stars]], recent tower population, hotel quality and hotel advertising affect that share. Hotel quality uses front-desk ratings weighted by the rooms they serve. Adding equally rated rooms or another equally rated desk does not multiply attraction; it provides capacity to serve bookings. A hotel without measured ratings starts with a modest quality estimate so it can attract its first guests. Once measured ratings exist, adding unreviewed rooms does not erase a poor record.

			The demand display distinguishes regional travelers, the tower's capture share, expected bookings, available rooms and unserved opportunities. If the tower attracts more booking requests than it can serve, improve eligible room capacity and operations. If many rooms stay vacant, improve quality and attraction rather than assuming that more rooms create more travelers.

			Hotel advertising improves attraction to existing travelers; it does not create regional travelers or guarantee that bookings rise by the advertised percentage. Tourism events and VIP outcomes can affect travel activity. Ordinary weather changes daytime visitors, not hotel bookings.

			== Operating costs ==
			The infobox lists base building maintenance. Staff wages are additional: {{Game Money\|cost=250}} per worker per day. The default two workers therefore add {{Game Money\|cost=500}} per day. Staffing can be adjusted from one to five workers to match guest volume.
