| New York Hotels Entice Customers With Lure of TV Life In a city like New York, there are many reasons to pick a particular watering hole: a sympathetic bartender, a selective jukebox, the collection of patrons bellied up alongside you. But for Kate Hughes and Toni Suppa, friends since high school, it was the guilty pleasures of TV's ''Gossip Girl'' that helped lure them on a recent evening to the |
| IN TRANSIT; What Heat Wave? Hotels Offer Outdoor Showers If hotel pools aren't enough to cool you down, there's a less crowded alternative for travelers to New York City: outdoor showers. Gansevoort Park, which is scheduled to open 140 of its 249 rooms in early August, will debut a tri-level rooftop lounge on opening day. There, hotel patrons and members of the general public who get overheated will be |
| A Bill to Stop Illegal Hotels, And a Protest When the State Legislature recently passed a bill meant to stop the use of residential apartments as hotel rooms, tenant advocates and some elected officials spoke favorably of the measure, saying it would end a dangerous and unregulated practice. Yet that reception was not universal, and in City Hall Park on Sunday afternoon, about 150 people |
| Europe Without Hotels IN the middle of a cool, cloudless Parisian afternoon, light was pouring into my guest room from a turn-of-the-century courtyard in the 10th Arrondissement. I clambered up to the loft bed, suspended above dark oak floors, and stared at the textiles shop sign swinging in the courtyard through the large, almost floor-to-ceiling windows. A bottle of |
| 30 SECONDS WITH JACQUES ROGGE; A Life Up in the Air And in Hotels Most of the world knows Jacques Rogge, the president of the International Olympic Committee, as the man who helps open the Olympic Games. Rogge, 68, keeps a full schedule as an international sports diplomat, meeting with leaders around the globe. But his job as president, which he has held since 2001, is only Rogge's most recent career. He competed |
| IN TRANSIT; Hotels Grow the Food Their Guests Eat Following the lead of restaurants, many resorts and hotels have recently begun cultivating their food in-house, managing produce and herb gardens, bee boxes and even full-fledged farms to supply their kitchens. While locavore lodging is not new to eco-resorts, it has cropped up in unlikely - less rural - settings. Some of the food on the menu |
| EDITORIAL; New York City's Illegal Non-Hotels The Web sites show happy young travelers bunking within a few blocks of Broadway. And they offer a place to stay in such a glamorous, expensive city for only $15 a night. The problem is that a growing number of these ''hotels'' are unsafe, unsanitary and illegal. Rogue hotels offer a quick buck for the landlords and a problem for almost everybody |
| ON THE ROAD; Credit Card Hackers Visit Hotels All Too Often HERE'S something that the struggling hotel sector prefers not to spotlight: it is a favorite target of hackers. A study released this year by SpiderLabs, a part of the data-security consulting company Trustwave, found that 38 percent of the credit card hacking cases last year involved the hotel industry. The sector was well ahead of the financial |

totally easy! always in Hotels in london coz they aint native !!! im starting a twittition for… — I'll sign it!! :P http://4ms.me/9KyqlVA 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.[citation needed] 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.[citation needed] In India and Bangladesh, the word may also refer to a restaurant.
The word hotel is derived from the French hôtel (coming from hôte meaning host), which referred to a French version of a townhouse or any other building seeing frequent visitors, rather than a place offering accommodation. In contemporary French usage, hôtel now has the same meaning as the English term, and hôtel particulier is used for the old meaning. The French spelling, with the circumflex, was also used in English, but is now rare. The circumflex replaces the 's' found in the earlier hostel spelling, which over time took on a new, but closely related meaning. Grammatically, Hotels usually take the definite article - hence "The Astoria Hotel" or simply "The Astoria".
