Hotel

Common Law states that a "hotel is a place where all who conduct themselves properly,and who being able to pay for their entertainment, are receives, if there be accomodation for then, and who without any stipulated engagement as to the duration of their stay or as to the rate of compensation are whilw there, supplied at a reasonable cost with their meals, lodging and other srvices and attention as are necessarily incident to the use as a temporarily home."


A hotel may be called as an establishment where primary business is to provide to the general public lodging facilities and which may also furnish one or more of the various services such as food and beverage, laundry, uniformed services etc. Hence, hotel can also be called as home mutiplied by commercial activities.

The term hotel was used in England in about 1760. British law as a" place where a bonafide traveller can receive a food and shelter, provided he is in a fit position to pay for and in fit condition to be received" defines hotel or inn.
