If you’re feeling stressed from the lack of travel or working from home, consider a hotel.
Specifically, a hotel day pass. That’s the suggestion from The Conversation, which notes that J.K. Rowling wrote much of Harry Potter series from a luxury hotel to avoid typical home distractions.
To put your mind at ease, it doesn’t need to be a five-star resort. It’s more about finding a safe space that allows you to concentrate and separate work and home hours. While polls vary, it appears that about 40-70 percent of people now working at home would eventually like to get back to an office — a hotel with amenities might offer an alternative (for now) that’ll realign your work-life balance while also stimulating a suffering industry.
One example arrives via Marriott. Their day pass includes a 12-hour window (6 a.m.-6 p.m.) that gives you access to a guest room with a desk, complimentary wifi and a private bathroom, along with full use of on-property business facilities (day pass programs at other hotels may offer access to gyms and other hotel amenities). Hilton also offers a similar workspace package, and sites like Dayuse can help you book hotels that you can use during daylight hours.
