The hotel industry has not changed significantly in a thousand years (maybe more). There are few industries I can think of that are more historically defined than the inn with the inn keeper. Aside from the implications of the traditions, it is also a business model that has worked remarkably well for a long time. I doubt they are going to be keen to jump quickly on a major disruption.
