Quinn and Flo are working in a hotel setting, but the business they are trying to get off the ground is a travel business. The girls will send customers to themed hotels and make sure the hotels cater to the guests needs. The game starts out in a run down hotel in Diner Town. Quinn and Flo have to keep the quests happy, which requires delivering luggage, handing off fresh towels and providing room service. That is not all, though, they will need to attend to room mishaps and customer whims too.

“Hotels are funny, and romantic and all about customer service,” said Kenny Shea Dinkin, Chief Creative Officer at PlayFirst. “With Hotel Dash: Suite Success, we’ve introduced a new vertical, timing element to the Diner Dash series, set against an exciting and spoofy hotel-culture backdrop. So with its set of new, quirky and demanding Dinertoon guests (sleepwalkers, anyone?) Hotel Dash has players strategically maneuvering to help the clientele across multiple floors of five hilarious hotels.”

Players helps Flo launch Quinn’s new travel business by running themed hotels, managing the flow of new & familiar guests, and fulfilling their unique needs & requests – in order to earn tips to refurbish hotels.  Starting with a ramshackle DinerTown™ hotel, players jump into a time management puzzle that sends them up and down the elevator, with a goal of keeping things in order to keep customers happy! Tasks include delivering luggage, handing off fresh towels and providing room service, while attending to room mishaps and customer whims.  Players must travel from top floors to the lobby via the hotel elevators, ensuring smooth hotel operations and collecting tips upon checkout. Juggling customer demands with logistics and an ever-ticking clock, players must be strategic in organizing their time versus customers’ patience and personalities.

As the game progresses, players can manage customer temperament by delivering mood-brightening extras, like floral arrangement and gift baskets. With their earnings, players can then upgrade the rooms and common areas of the hotel, fully renovating them and expanding Quinn’s new business. As the business succeeds, Quinn and Flo tackle additional hotels, with themes ranging from ski retreat to city getaway, taking on new challenges and challenging new guest types.
