In France, Novotel (Accor Group) offers in the bars of its hotels, business lounge areas with free WiFi. Commercial, businessman and consultants work there. but I dont think there have many interactions between them. Especially at risk of privacy because there are also hotel guests who pass through there. If hotels and other places of passage for mobile workers, offered coworking spaces in partnership with the coworking space of the city, such as hotels gain in attendance and mobile workers as quality work. One more development for coworking!
