a building where people stay, usually for a short time, paying for their rooms and meals:
We stayed at / in a hotel. * hotel rooms / guests * a luxury / five-star hotel * a friendly, family-run hotel
HELPNOTE Some speakers do not pronounce the 'h' at the beginning of hotel and use an instead of a before it. This now sounds old-fashioned.
