FAQS

What is included in the price?

The pricing of a dayuse room includes the rent of a room for a given period of time (check-in time to check-out time). You may check-in anytime during the time slot you have booked. Most of our partners offer the same access to their facilities than for night clientele. In case of any doubt, please feel free to contact our customer service. Please note that extra taxes and fees may be required.

What does the percentage next to the price mean?

This is the discount rate we negotiated for you, on the average annual base price per night announced by the hotel. This way, Dayuse allows you to pay the right price for your day stay at the hotel.

Do I need to bring a booking confirmation to the hotel?

When you finalize your booking on Dayuse, the hotel is immediately notified of your booking and will integrate it into their system quickly.

However, presenting the booking confirmation may be useful in saving time during check-in.

The hotel reception may ask for a valid ID in case of doubt concerning the age of you and your guest.

Dayuse allows people to rent hotel rooms for the day

November 4, 2021

Dayuse offers daytime-only hotel bookings, with 60 per cent of guests checking into UK properties citing 'romance' as the primary reason for their visit. Jenny Southan reports

French start-up Dayuse says that it opens up hotels to a new, local clientele by democratising high-end stays thanks to prices that are 30 per cent to 75 per cent cheaper than an overnight stay (rates start from £50 a day). It also allows hotels to monetise rooms that would otherwise be empty between bookings.

In total, Dayuse has 800 hotel partners in the UK (such as the Dixon in London, pictured) and 7,000 partner hotels in 26 other countries. Dayuse's ambition is to triple its business volume and double the number of hotels it partners with by 2024.

In spite of the pandemic, in June 2021 Dayuse said it had already reached 90 per cent of pre-Covid bookings, demonstrating resilience despite the absence of business and international travellers. This decrease was compensated by a strong increase from “work from hotel” bookings.

By September 2021, Dayuse had surpassed the pre-Covid figures with more people taking the opportunity to reconnect with loved ones or take some much-needed time for themselves. This was an uplift of 50 per cent compared to pre-Covid.

By the end of 2021, Dayuse expects to generate over one million reservations and £85 million in business volume coming from 7,000 hotels worldwide.

In the UK, London is the most popular city for Dayuse hotel stays, with 50 per cent of the bookings, followed by Manchester and Birmingham. Of the London guests, 90 per cent are local.

Why are people booking rooms for the day? According to a survey of 467 Dayuse guests, 12 per cent said they were checking in to enjoy a comfortable bed, while more than 60 per cent are in pursuit of romance. 37 per cent of these admitted that their visit was a "private liaison". Overall, 20 per cent of guests said that having a professional, quiet place to work was the main reason for their visit.

David Lebée, founder and CEO of Dayuse, states: “Dayuse offers consumers access to spaces as early as 6am until as late as 11pm, transforming hotels into real living places where people can eat, drink, work and enjoy at their leisure during the day. In a post pandemic world, we understand how people spend their valuable time whether that be in the swimming pool, spa, rooftop bar or simply kicking back in a fluffy robe with the one you love, ordering room service.”

He adds: "This study proves that daycations are the new hot trend. Whether alone, with a partner or a friend, daycationing in your hometown prevents you from packing or driving long distances, while still reaping all the benefits of being away.

"From trendy boutique hotels to luxurious refurbished properties, we offer the ideal urban getaway for busy modern couples, with romance and luxury around the corner."
