A hotel or a guest-house is a large building with many rooms, where people can sleep when they are not at home. A motel is a hotel especially for motorists - people who drive cars - where the room door usually opens into the parking lot. Inn is sometimes used to mean a smaller hotel.
These places will rent a room for any number of days. They offer rooms to sleep, and you have to pay money for the service. There are also hotels where conferences are held.
