Hotels require a vastly more dense plumbing structure, I don't think it's easy or cheap to retrofit onto an office building.
Hotels with dorm like shower systens maybe could work. I think something like a hostel.
That being said you cant charge much when you are forcing customers to share bathrooms.
With enshittification and being one of the worlds top tourist cities of course you can! Just look what they charge for rent. Then LA and Chicago will follow suit ;)
Well, shared bathroom means zero stars so yeah, you basically can't call it a hotel anymore.
People would still go. People go new york for new york not for a resort
Offices are different in the fact that they have way more interior space far away from windows as well.
That's generally going to be a hard sell, not to mention against zoning codes in many cases.
