Junior Business Developer
For most people, hotels are places you only visit when you travel.
But we see something different.
Behind their doors, hotels hide some of the most extraordinary spaces cities have to offer: breathtaking rooftops with skyline views, world-class spas and pools, bars and restaurants led by visionary chefs, interiors that spark the imagination, and beds so perfect you never want to leave them.
Yet, most of these spaces remain invisible to the people who live just a few streets away.
Staycation was born from a simple belief**:** the most inspiring places in your city shouldn't be reserved for tourists. They should be part of your everyday life: an alternative to a date night at the restaurant, a spontaneous midweek escape, or a unique way to celebrate a special moment.
Our mission is to transform hotels into a new form of urban entertainment.
Places people turn to when they want to feel, connect or recharge. Whether it's 24 hours, 48 hours, or just a few hours, we're reinventing the way people experience the cities they call home.
Today, Staycation means:
4 million users in France, Belgium and Switzerland (soon in the UK and Spain)
2,000+ partner hotels among the best 4★, 5★ and iconic palaces
9.3/10 average rating for our experiences
Joining Staycation means becoming part of a passionate, creative, and ambitious team on a quest to redefine what hospitality and city life can be.
