San Francisco, Aug 7 (IANS): In a bid to lure more employees to come to work, Google has announced a $99 per night rate for its on-campus hotel at its Mountain View, California headquarters.

The aim is to help remote employees transition into a hybrid working mode, according to a CNBC report.

The hotel is part of Google's new 42-acre Bay View campus that was opened in Mountain View last year.

"Google is offering a 'Summer Special' for employees to stay the night at an on-campus hotel for a discount," the report added.

The summer special scheme will run till September 30 to make it easier for Googlers to transition to the hybrid workplace.

Since the promotion is for unapproved business travel, the company will not reimburse their stays, but will require employees to use their personal credit cards, according to the scheme.

Google started requiring workers to return to the office for three days per week last year.

"We regularly run accommodation specials for local or travelling Googlers to take advantage of our spaces and amenities," a Google spokesperson said in a statement.

"We advertise these in a regular Perks email which also contains discounts for employees on other services and entertainment options," the spokesperson added.

If a Google employee stays for 30 days at the company's hotel, it will be about $2,970 per month.

A Google search for four-star hotels in the area yielded rates between $120–$250 per night.

"Now I can give some of my pay back to Google," one employee wrote on an internal company forum.
