Office hoteling is a flexible workplace practice that allows employees to use a reservation sys-
tem to find and claim a workspace or resources, on-demand and for a specified period of time,
to fit their working needs. In a dynamic workplace, it is often used alongside, or as an alterna-
tive to traditional permanent seating.
Hoteling allows employees to choose where they work best, depending on their needs for the
day. It also gives them the opportunity to work in collaborative areas or near their teammates,
making it easy to be productive and engaged.
Businesses that implement an agile office hoteling program can see benefits for both them-
selves and their employees.
