Create a hotel space for units other than offices?

TomasL44

Hello,

Our company has been using office hotel spaces for hybrid employees for a little while now. Managers are now wanting to create lactation stations for employees to reserve but these spaces are rarely office space. Most times the space type is Institutional Use. Is there a way to make non-office spaces into reservable hotel spaces?

Hello @TomasL44 you can make any unit in the indoor map bookable. If the ASSIGNMENT_TYPE of the particular room that you plan to repurpose as a lactation station is set to Null or Not Assignable, you can enable assignment for it in Space Planner (see screenshot).

Following that, you can create a Hotel named Lactation Stations and then assign that room to that area and optionally, assign people to it too and restrict bookings so only a limited number of people can book it. This way you can ensure it is used only for its intended purpose by those who need that space.

In this example, I am repurposing a storage room (has full privacy) by enabling assignment. You can even edit other attributes from the Properties view, if needed.
