Why would anyone travel to a hotel to use something like this? This only makes sense if you are taking a VR vacation ala Total Recall.

Marriott Hotels today announced the launch of "VRoom Service" – a first-of-its-kind guest service that allows guests to order inspiring virtual reality experiences to their rooms. Created in collaboration with Samsung Electronics America, "VRoom Service" is a first in the travel industry. The launch represents the latest in a series of innovations by the Marriott International flagship brand that are changing how people travel.
 
So this is a poor man's holodeck ... woo hoo ... I'd rather actually travel to places ;)
 
Guess #1: Marriott creates this availability and then stocks the experience with VR experiences from local attractions, be they theme parks or museums or whatever...person puts on VR headset, gets "demo" of what it's like to be at....whatever, Universal Studios.....ride the new coaster at the park, etc. People take off the goggles and go "man I'm totally going THERE".

Guess #2: VR Porn

Each is equally likely...
