Hotels provide accommodation, usually in private rooms, ranging from simple beds in a small room, to luxury suites with round-the-clock staff, priced accordingly.
Hotels have some level of service for guests; at least a lobby desk. In addition to accommodation, some hotels act as venues for conferences and private events (e.g. wedding reception, company anniversaries) even if the guests or invitees have no plans of sleeping there.


== Booking a room ==
In most cases, hotel rooms are booked, or reserved, in advance, so that a room will be held by the hotel awaiting the arrival of a specific guest. Rooms at hotels can also be rented by simply walking in and enquiring at the front desk, but this may be met with a decline as the hotel may be fully booked for the night.
Rooms can be booked directly with the hotels, or via intermediaries such as travel websites (aggregators) and travel agents. Airlines, railways, ferry operators and other travel-related services providers often act as intermediaries as well, providing their passengers and clients the option to book a hotel room in addition to their regular services.
