GrandStay is an idle hotel tycoon game where every decision matters. Buy your first hotel, hire staff, build amenities, keep guests happy and watch the money flow in — even while you're away.

BUILD YOUR DREAM HOTEL • 6 hotel types: Motel, Budget, Business, Resort, Boutique and Luxury • 8 world cities: Istanbul, Paris, Tokyo, New York, Dubai, London, Rome and Barcelona • 90+ unique amenities: infinity pools, rooftop bars, spas, helicopter pads and more

MANAGE LIKE A PRO • Hire and manage 8 staff roles — receptionists, chefs, housekeepers, designers and more • Set your room price and find the sweet spot between occupancy and profit • Fix maintenance issues before they ruin guest satisfaction • React to random events: tourism booms, celebrity visits, storms
