Noun

hotel (plural hotels)

1. (now chiefly historical) A large town house or mansion; a grand private residence, especially in France. [from 17th c.]
   • 1920, Edith Wharton, chapter 2, in The Age of Innocence, New York: D. Appleton and Company:

     [T]he cream-coloured house (supposed to be modelled on the private hotels of the Parisian aristocracy) was there[.]

3. An establishment that provides accommodation and other services for paying guests; normally larger than a guesthouse, and often one of a chain. [from 17th c.]
   • 1868, "A Clergyman" (John Morison), Australia in 1866, page 165,

     When gold-digging commenced in California, the writer was staying at an hotel in Wellington, New Zealand, where a Yankee trader was also staying. Seated at the dining-table, the latter was discoursing of the business he was doing […] .

   • 2013 June 29, “High and wet”, in The Economist, volume 407, number 8842, page 28:

     Floods in northern India, mostly in the small state of Uttarakhand, have wrought disaster on an enormous scale. The early, intense onset of the monsoon on June 14th swelled rivers, washing away roads, bridges, hotels and even whole villages. Rock-filled torrents smashed vehicles and homes, burying victims under rubble and sludge.

4. (South Asia) A restaurant; any dining establishment.
5. (international standards) Alternative letter-case form of Hotel from the NATO/ICAO Phonetic Alphabet.
6. The larger red property in the game of Monopoly, in contradistinction to houses.

Usage notes

• The UK pronunciation omitting the initial /h/ is in imitation of the French hôtel and is now considered old-fashioned (unless of course the speaker always drops /h/).
