[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] As the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) prolongs, the hotel industry is facing increasing difficulties. With a sharp decline in business customers leading to reduced hotel demand, unique packages aimed at attracting long-term guests are pouring out.

According to the hotel industry on the 25th, as overseas travel has recently become impossible, more customers are seeking long-term stay products to enjoy during holidays. In fact, according to the accommodation reservation platform Wemakeprice Tour, long-term stay reservations of 7 nights or more during July and August increased by 1000% compared to the same period last year.

'Lotte Hotel Jeju' recently launched the 'Jeju Wang Sarabopse' package. Available for reservations of 5 nights or more, this package allows guests to choose from a 'Deluxe Room' with an exotic outdoor garden and a heated pool with a view of Haeon, a 'Premier Ocean Room' overlooking the sea, or a family-friendly 'Ondol Room' with a comfortable heated floor. It includes breakfast for two at 'The Canvas' and two exchange vouchers for Delica Hans take-out coffee. Guests can also enjoy game rentals, fitness club access, and a children's experience play area.

'Moxy Seoul Insadong' is running a long-term stay promotion applicable for stays of 4 nights or more until the end of the year.

However, reservations must be made at least 3 days in advance.

'Kensington Hotel Yeouido' is selling a one-month stay product exclusively for deluxe rooms, including hotel-style residence services, until the end of the year.
