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.
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
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 ;)
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.
