The titular assassin in the John Wick franchise is a frequent guest at the Continental, an international hotel chain specifically for assassins. Contract killers have to do a lot of traveling for work. The targets don’t come to the killers; the killers have to go to them. And when they’re traveling, they need a discreet place to do their invoicing and get a good night’s sleep. The Continental provides those services and more, and all they ask is for no killing to take place on their premises — and a nightly fee, of course.
