What is the difference between an apartment and a hotel?

The differences between hotels and guesthouses are: different scale, different facilities, different environment, different prices and different opinions.

1, different proportions:

Hotel refers to a star-rated hotel with large scale, good equipment and high comprehensive service quality. Relatively speaking, the hotel will be relatively small and the supporting facilities will be relatively backward.

2. Different facilities:

The grades and specifications in the store are higher than those in the hotel. In addition to guest rooms, the hotel also has bars, shops, business centers, conference rooms and so on. The hotel may not have this series of equipment. But the hotel can basically only solve the accommodation problem, and eating is just by the way.

3, the environment is different:

Generally, hotels will be better decorated, especially star-rated hotels. Both hardware facilities and service personnel have undergone strict training. Then many hotels are private, and the service and hygiene are not as good as hotels.

4. Different prices:

The hotel's charge for one night is definitely higher than that of the hotel, which may be several times that of the hotel. In addition, hotels need to book in advance, especially on holidays, which hotels generally do not need.

5. Different opinions:

Hotel is the saying of China people. Before the reform and opening up, hotels in the mainland were all named after hotels (mostly state-owned). Hotel is a western-style saying. The same hotel, in coastal cities, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and abroad, is generally named after a hotel, and most of them were built after the reform and opening up.

Related evaluation:

According to the hotel's software and hardware facilities, the national tourism authorities rated it as 1-5 stars. The higher the star rating, the higher the service level of the hotel.

Hotels that also provide accommodation services for tourists do not participate in star rating because of their small scale.

Hotels, if large hotels are also places to provide accommodation and entertainment, participate in star rating as hotels and guesthouses; If the scale is small and only provides dining service for travelers, they will not participate in star rating.

Hostel, built in the era of planned economy, is mainly built by the government, enterprises and institutions. Although it also provides accommodation and entertainment services, the customers it faces are mainly internal personnel. Although some of them undertake business outside after the reform and opening up, their nature is mainly internal. Therefore, I don't participate in star rating.
