I spend about 100 nights per year in hotels, and I've stayed 18 continuous months in hotels in the 90's. I don't have a smartphone, and a smartphone is the last thing I want to get in a hotel room. Excuse-me, but when you travel a lot like I do, you want things to be easy. I remember fondly the days when hotel rooms had normal keys (old establishments still do). Now with electronic keys, it happened at least 3 times in the last 12 months that I couldn't get into my room, with me having to go back to the reception to reset the key.
Also, I would never perform any financial operation (BTC transaction or checking my bank account) on a machine that isn't mine.
Otherwise, I'd be happy to book a room and pay with BTC but even that could prove difficult, as I often book a month in advance, and the price of BTC may change significantly during that time.
