A hotel is a commercial establishment that provides lodging, accommodation, and often other services to travelers and tourists. It typically offers a range of guest rooms or suites for overnight stays, along with amenities such as restaurants, bars, swimming pools, gyms, conference rooms, and other facilities to cater to the needs of guests. Hotels can vary in size and quality, ranging from budget or economy hotels to luxury hotels and resorts. They serve as temporary residences for people who are away from home and require a place to stay during their travels.
