Daycation and WFH Package Deals in Penang

How times have changed! Once fully occupied, Penang’s five star hotels and resorts are struggling with dwindling occupancy rates amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

To stay afloat, the hotels have to devise innovative solutions and offer diverse options to attract the ever-discerning customer. Amongst them are daycations where you spend the day at the hotel with full access to facilities and meals. The day pass usually allows you to use the hotel’s swimming pool and gym for a specified period during the day.

Another popular offering is the WFH (Work from Hotel) package, which is similar to co-sharing space albeit in a hotel environment with complimentary usage of facilities and meal vouchers. With a change in surroundings, perhaps it will help to boost productivity?
