Screen-free hotel in Sweden offering free hotel room to social media addicts
FOX NEWS - How would you like to get a free hotel room?
Well, of course you would. But, there's a catch. You can't brag about it on social media. Actually, you can't really do very much at all on social media because this hotel room's rate is entirely determined on how addicted you are to Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, Instagram...you get it.
According to Hotel Designs, the number of social media users worldwide in 2018 reached 3.196 billion, up by 13 percent from the year before. Just when you thought everybody was on social media, it turns out the internet is still growing.
That's why The Check Out Suite in Hotel Bellora, in Gothenburg, Sweden, is designed to help guests totally relax, which includes staying away from the stresses of using social media all the time. Instead, the hotel wants to encourage quality time spent with loved ones and experiencing the world around you, rather than staring at a screen.
Basically, the more you use social media apps, the higher your room rate will be.
