A hotel is an establishment that provides paid lodging, usually on a short-term basis. A Motel is an example of "PORTMANTEAU" in the english language. A portmanteau is a word formed by mixing two different words. Motel = Motor + Hotel, Brunch = Breakfast + Lunch. In a motel you can drive upto your room. In some motels you are offered kitchens too to prepare your food. Motels are usually situated on highways and act as a place of temporary stay for long distance travellers. Hotels are situated in prime locations are they are aiming to attract customers of high status like buissness travellers, tourists etc.
But hotel or a motel, the fact is that there is no place like home. |

Hotels have a lobby that you go through and open your room door from an inside hallway. Motels have outside opening doors to your room. |

a motel is an outside access place where you can pull up outside your room. a hotel is a place that is all internal. You can't access your room directly from the outside. |

The word "hotel" has generally referred to lodgings located in downtown areas of cities.
"Motel" -- which comes from the phrase "motor hotel" -- refers to a lodging located on a highway between cities.
However, as cities sprawl into suburbs and suburbs into exurbs, the distinction between the two words is blurring. Is a seven-story Hilton at an interestate junction 15 miles from downtown a hotel or a motel?
Another distinction: Hotels generally offer a restaurant/lounge, meeting rooms, a shop and other guest services. Motels generally offer direct parking access near guest rooms and may have few, if any, guest services. |

Hospitality industry officials used to say motel rooms were those that came with parking spaces, but now they say that distinction is no longer useful or apt.
The word itself seems to be slipping out of favor, evidenced by the American Hotel and Motel Association changing its name in 2001 to the American Hotel and Lodging Association. Many state associations have done likewise.
Since 1991, when the Motel Inn went out of business, news archives reflect periodic announcements in San Luis Obispo that developers will rehab and reopen the site.
The property is now owned by the adjoining Apple Farm Inn, and manager Dean Hutton told me plans for a major face-lift, including a "motoring museum," are once again in the discussion phase.
If all goes well, the world's first motel will rise from its ruins. Surprise and disappointment will turn to wonder. And a great excuse for another road trip. |

There really is none. The term "motel" is derived from the term "motor hotel," which originally meant that the hotel provided parking (ca. 1950s). The term motel today generally is used for a "limited service" property (i.e., a hotel that provides a limited number of amenities and does not provide food service). |

The word MO-TEL is a contraction for MOtor hoTEL ... originally a place to stay when driving from place to place. Not typically for any extended length. |

A hotel is a large building which has interior rooms. (Meaning you exit your room to a hallway) A motel has doors that exit directly to the outside. Motels usually have parking directly or very near your room. |

motel
Origin: 1925
The announcement came in Hotel Monthly for March 1925: "The Milestone Interstate Corporation...proposes to build and operate a chain of motor hotels between San Diego and Seattle, the hotels to have the name 'Motel.'"
It was only the dawn of the motel age, but Interstate was seeing far into the future. At the time, roads for automobiles were still primitive, and so were most lodgings for travelers by car. The first such places were simply campgrounds with parking spaces nearby, though they were often furnished with tents or cabins. Reflecting their character, they took names like auto camp (1922), tourist camp (1923), motor camp (1925), rest cabins (1934), and tourist park (1936). To suggest a more comfortable kind of accommodation, proprietors sometimes used the word court, as in motor court (1936), cottage court (1936), tourist court (1937), and auto court (1940).
But there were more and more car travelers who preferred the comforts and conveniences of a hotel, so motel--which contains four-fifths of hotel--gradually evicted all other names, including the short-lived autotel and autel (both 1936). Indeed, motel has even rendered its parent phrase motor hotel obsolete.
Meanwhile, on the model of motel, we have the boatel (1957) at dockside, for those who drive on water, and the zootel for pets. There is even a snotel, a site where snow surveys are conducted during the winter at Rocky Mountain National Park.

In general, a hotel has a central hallway indoors with doors to rooms opening into this hallway.
A motel has doors opening up outside, if you are on the ground floor usually it opens up right to where you parked your car.
A MOTEL is a MOtor Inn HoTEL. |

A motel is essentially located on a highway, to cater to the travellers boarding/lodging requirements ,en route to their final destination.A hotel on the other hand may or may not be located on a highway and is usually the final destination of the traveller,where he may stay for a longer period. |

I think motel stated as a place to stay off of the highway that you drove up and parked right outside of your room. Today most motels off of the highway are pretty much like hotels. |

Hotels differ from motels in that most motels have drive-up, exterior entrances to the rooms, while hotels tend to have interior entrances to the rooms, which may increase guests' safety and present a more upmarket image. |

a motel is short for motor inn, a stop over, more or less, and a hotel is short for home away from home... a longer extended stay. |
