Lodges Tourists temporarily, providing Customers

Hotel is the Tourist Lodgings building available in Old World and Cape Trelawney, and which requires  Tourist Season DLC. Hotels are unlocked after upgrading a Public Mooring, which is possible after reaching 500  Engineers. As long as a hotel is connected to the Trading Post it can provide housing for the  Tourists. Fulfilling needs of hotels can increase the tourist population, their workforce, happiness, and income they generate.

Needs

For more information, see: Needs

The consumption, supply and income values correspond to a hotel with maximum capacity of 500 tourists (disregarding residents from lifestyle needs).

Bus network requirements

For more details, see: Bus Network

Building-based basic needs, such as Tourist Mooring or Restaurant as well as the hotspot needs like Zoo can only be fulfilled when their respective building is within the Bus Network. Bus stops need to be placed nearby to have those buildings within their circular range, and in some cases the bus stops can't be too far away from hotels' bus stops in order to completely fulfill the needs of tourists.

Needs debuffs

Tourists are more picky than other residential tiers - if any of their happiness factors provides negative happiness, particular basic needs of tourists will become limited and their fulfilment will never reach 100%. This means that the basic needs which become limited would provide less tourists and less income per hotel, however, the consumption of goods stays on the same level. Each such debuff comes from one of the happiness factors being negative, the debuff limits specific needs, and disappears as soon as the happiness provided from the factor becomes neutral or positive. If a basic need is affected by several debuffs, their effects are additive thus lowering the maximum fulfilment according to the sum of the debuffs.

The happiness factors and their debuffs if they are negative are as follows:

• Attractiveness: -10% fulfilment from: Bread, Variety Theatre, Restaurant, Jam, Bar, Shampoo, Cafe, The Iron Tower

  Attractiveness of the island needs to be equal or higher than a certain threshold, which depends on population living on the island, for the attractiveness factor to be at least neutral in order to avoid the debuff. Tourists gain +3 for each higher attractiveness level that has been surpassed. They lose -3 happiness for each attractiveness level that has not been met and which is lower than the required threshold. The dependency of attractiveness thresholds on island's population is as follows:

  • 0  Farmers: 0
  • 150  Farmers: 100
  • 150  Workers: 250
  • 750  Workers: 450
  • 500  Artisans: 700
  • 1500  Artisans: 1000
  • 500  Engineers: 1350
  • 3000  Engineers: 1750
  • 1750  Investors: 2200
  • 5000  Investors: 2700
  • 10000  Investors: 3250
  • 25000  Investors: 3850
• Hotspots: -20% fulfilment from: Variety Theatre, The Iron Tower
• Luxury needs: -20% fulfilment from: Bread, Jam, Shampoo
• Newspaper: -20% fulfilment from: Restaurant, Bar, Cafe, The Iron Tower
• Peace: -20% fulfilment from: Bread, Variety Theatre, Restaurant, Jam, Bar, Shampoo, Cafe, The Iron Tower

Interactions with other DLCs

Some hotspot needs of tourists come from other DLCs:

• Botanical Garden from  Botanica
• Docklands from  Docklands
• Palace from  Seat of Power
• Skyline Tower from  The High Life

As other DLCs are required, those needs never have negative impact on the happiness of tourists, thus they are not necessary to be fulfilled to avoid the debuff from the hotspots factor. They do provide additional happiness and income when fulfilled and can effectively replace or compliment other hotspot needs, but they are not mandatory.

Items

Some items when equipped in town halls can have an impact on hotels. Given that hotels are actually not a type of residence, items that affect residences cannot affect hotels.
