A new type of tourism has emerged in Japan, offering travelers the opportunity to stay in hotels in exchange for help with work. Guests do not pay for their stay, but for several hours a day they take on the duties of waiters, maids, porters or even help in the kitchen.
Startup Otetsutabi has emerged to ease staff shortages in the country's many hotels, which have worsened since the Covid-19 pandemic. This initiative benefits both hotels that are short on labor and tourists who are on a budget.
There are already 528 hotels registered on the Otetsutabi platform, and their number continues to grow every month. This idea has gained popularity especially in the west of Japan, where a large number of resorts and natural attractions are concentrated.
