Houses of Benefit

Houses of Benefit is a distributed hotel service promoting biodiversity in bed & breakfast accommodations for the cultural sector. Houses of Benefit is currently developing a Per Noctem contract for travellers on cultural business (visiting artist, curator, festival guest). This contract aims to provide a credible accounting method to underwrite wild or offmarket accommodation options such as sleeping in trees or staying with own friends, with the same kind of assurance that hotel bills normally receive. With the Per Noctem system, travellers are issued a nightly accommodation payment scaled inversely to the level of amenities provided them.
