Free Stay in a Luxury Room Worth Tens of Thousands — Hotel Seeks “Sleep Testers”

Reporter Chen Ziying / Taipei Reporting

Becoming a hotel “sleep tester” is no longer a dream — the idea of staying in a five-star hotel for free is incredibly appealing. A business has launched a “Hotel Sleep Tester Recruitment” campaign, and those selected will be able to bring along a “sleeping friend” to enjoy a free stay in a room worth over ten thousand yuan. However, applicants must be “corporate managers,” specifically individuals responsible for employee travel, corporate meetings, staff training, or client accommodations, and they must also write travel reviews and share their experiences on booking websites.

The Crystal Hotels Group has expanded into southern Taiwan and, seeing strong potential in the business traveler market, has launched a “Hotel Sleep Tester Recruitment” campaign targeting corporate managers. Pou Yi-yun, Marketing and PR Manager at the Tainan Crystal Hotel, explained that selected testers will be able to stay for free in a Sea East Room worth 13,629 yuan. The goal is for decision-makers from various enterprises to personally experience the hotel’s new facilities and services. From May 26 to June 20, ten groups of testers will be invited to stay each week, with dedicated staff providing guided tours of the hotel and answering any questions related to corporate guest accommodations or dining services.
