what is difference between hotel and motel
Answer Posted / p. syam sundar
MOTEL is a Hotel designed for persons traveling by
automobile, with convenient parking space provided (the
name blends the words "motor hotel").
Originally usually consisting of a series of separate or
attached roadside cabins, motels serve commercial and
business travelers and persons attending conventions and
business meetings as well as vacationers and tourists. By
1950 the automobile was the principal mode of travel in the
U.S., and motels were built near large highways, just as
hotels had been built near railroad stations.
HOTEL is a Building that provides lodging, meals, and other
services to the traveling public on a commercial basis.
Inns have existed since ancient times (e.g., along the
Roman road system during the Roman Empire) to serve
merchants and other travelers. Medieval European
monasteries operated inns to guarantee haven for travelers
in dangerous regions. The spread of travel by stagecoach in
the 18th century stimulated the development of inns, as did
the Industrial Revolution. The modern hotel was largely the
result of the railroads; when traveling for pleasure became
widely popular, large hotels were often built near railroad
stations. In 1889 the Savoy Hotel in London set a new
standard, with its own electricity and a host of special
services; the Statler Hotel in Buffalo, N.Y. (1908),
another landmark, catered to the growing class of business
travelers. After World War II, new hotels tended to be
larger and were often built near airports. Hotel chains
became common, making purchasing, sales, and reservations
more efficient. Hotels fall into three categories:
transient hotels; resort hotels, intended primarily for
vacationers; and residential hotels, essentially apartment
buildings offering room and meal service.
