Because there is no guarantee that the hotel will be able to get you in to your room and a shower. Or that you have a hotel room in which you are staying (day trip). Or that you have time to get to the hotel and deal with that versus the 30 minutes to clean up and get out to the office from the airport.

I love arrivals lounge service.
