Hotel
The back side of Twikkii Beach Hotel
A hotel is a hybrid of a community lot and residential lot that can only be found in vacation neighborhoods in The Sims: Vacation and The Sims 2 Bon Voyage.
The Sims Vacation
Hotels were first introduced in The Sims: Vacation in Vacation Island. Each area of Vacation Island has one hotel available, while the other two lots will be campgrounds and a bare bones lot. Hotels can be modified in build mode and buy mode when no Sims are on vacation in it. The three hotels available per area: (Winter: Al Pine's Winter Wonderland, Forest: Bear Essentials Lodge and Beach: Palazzo Palms Hotel).
Reserving Rooms & Checking In
To check in a hotel, click on the desk found on the entrance of the hotel. Rooms cannot be reserved, though Sims have access to all rooms in the hotel. To check out click on the same desk where you checked in.
Activities
Activities in hotels differ in each area, somewhat staying similar. In the Winter area, there are snow slides, Sims can snowball fight, and build snowmen. In the Forest area, Sims can Fish, have water balloon fights, and can try archery. While at the Beach area, the hotel contains a large swimming pool with slides, and it also contains special games that Sims can win prizes through. It's also found in other lots in all three areas.

References from other Games
The Sims 2 (Nintendo DS)
The Hotel is first introduced in The Sims 2 for DS, as the player manages the hotel.
The Sims Life Stories
In the beginning of Vince's Story, If you click on the goal icon The Hotel is mentioned, Vince mentioned that he went to a 5 Star Hotel in SimCity so it may be a reference to The Sims 2 Bon Voyage (as The Sims 2 Bon Voyage is released after The Sims Life Stories).
