hotelDefinition from Wiktionary, the free dictionary Jump to: navigation, search See also Hotel, and hôtelTranslingualSymbolhotel
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A hotel is an establishment that provides paid lodging on a short-term basis. The provision of basic accommodation, in times past, consisting only of a room with a bed, a cupboard, a small table and a washstand has largely been replaced by rooms with modern facilities, including en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning or climate control. Additional common features found in hotel rooms are a telephone, an alarm clock, a television, and Internet connectivity; snack foods and drinks may be supplied in a mini-bar, and facilities for making hot drinks. Larger hotels may provide a number of additional guest facilities such as a restaurant, a swimming pool or childcare, and have conference and social function services. Hotel rooms are usually numbered (or named in some smaller hotels and B&Bs) to allow guests to identify their room. Some hotels offer meals as part of a room and board arrangement. In the United Kingdom, a hotel is required by law to serve food and drinks to all guests within certain stated hours; to avoid this requirement it is not uncommon to come across private hotels which are not subject to this requirement. In Japan, capsule hotels provide a minimized amount of room space and shared facilities. In the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada and Ireland (and rarely in some parts of the United States), the word may also refer to a pub or bar and might not offer accommodation. In India and Bangladesh, the word may also refer to a restaurant. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License Is it practicable to live in a hotel in Newark for 5 days sightseeing in NYC? Q. Soon I want to go to NYC with my parents, and we are looking for a hotel. As hotels (and parking) are so expensive in the city, someone told me we should find a hotel in Newark instead. Is that practicable if you are planning to do sightseeing every day? How long does the train ride into NYC take and do the trains go all day (so that we are flexible with the times)? Can anyone recommend a good, not too expensive hotel?

If you guys don`t care about your accommodations, and just want something clean and simple, why don`t you stay in a hostel right in manhattan? My friends and I always stay at The Big Apple Hostel right in Times Square (45th and Broadway). It's only $37/night per person, and you're right in the thick of things. It's clean, and functional with private rooms and 4 bathrooms to a floor. It also has a nice common area, and patio out back. You won't really be spending much time in the hostel anyways, and by staying here, you'll save so much on cabs, or so much time not having to take subways back into the city. I'm going there for the 6th time this weekend and can't wait! Trust me, you will love it!

Q. When a hotel is closed for renovation, are they actually allowed to carry out the renovation work on saturdays and sundays? What are the days and time that they are actually allowed to carry out the work? When hotels are carrying out renovation / refurbishment, are they supposed to put up a sign board indicating the contractor, contact numbers, etc? If not, whom should we report to? If residence around the neighbourhood encounter some problems, e.g. fire alarm of the hotel ringing non-stop, who should the the residence contact? Asked by knowmyrights - Sat Jan 31 05:08:36 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. In the US, they're almost certainly being paid bonuses to work weekends. Because the hotel wants the job done as fast as possible. Depending on the area they're in, they are probably banned from doing loud work like jackhammering in the night, but there's no reason at all that quieter work can't go on 24/7. Although usually the work is no more than 12 hours a day. When the job site is open, there will be some sort of office/trailer onsite with a person who works for the general contractor. If an alarm goes off at night though, you may have to wait until morning to have it dealt with... the police don't have the authority to go in there and smash things up just to shut them up. Since it's a renovation job though, the hotel fire alarms… [cont.] Answered by mukansamonkey - Sat Jan 31 05:35:24 2009 Booking a hotel for minor while visiting a patient at the hospital?
Q. My best friend was just diagnosed with Leukemia, and I'm planning on driving up to New York(where her hospital is) to visit for a few days. I'm 17 years old, and unfortunately my parents are unable to take off work and come with me. So I was wondering, is there any possible way that they could book a hotel for me, near the hospital without having to be there to sign in, since I'm a minor? What are the rules and regulations on that? Thank you! Asked by FreeAsABird - Sun Mar 22 19:17:54 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. I run a large hotel and we have a "Parental Waiver" form that we created, however each hotel is allowed to have their own policy, therefore it may not even be a problem, whereas regardless, it could. Best bet: just call around asking hotels their policy. You're bound to find one where it wont be an issue. I run a hotel, but Im sure plenty of motels dont care. Good luck to both of you.
