A
hotel is an establishment that provides paid lodging, usually on a short-term basis. Hotels often provide a number of additional guest services such as a restaurant, a swimming pool and childcare. Some hotels have conference services and meeting rooms to encourage groups to hold conventions and meetings at their location.
How to map
There are multiple ways to map a hotel, for a given object use one of them.
As a campus
- Draw an area for the campus of the hotel, comprising buildings and outdoor areas. Apply
tourism=hotel. - Draw the area(s) for the building(s) inside the campus, and tag them with
building=*according to their typology. - If there are no outdoor areas, both the tourism and the building tags are applied to the building.
- Draw further facilities, such as
amenity=parkingorleisure=swimming_poolwithin the campus.
As a building
- Draw an area of the hotel building. Apply
tourism=hotelandbuilding=*(for building intended as hotel during construction usebuilding=hotel).
As a node
If unable to make a detailed survey, one may:
- Create a node at the centre of the area with
tourism=hotel. - If possible, draw the area(s) for the building(s) inside the campus, and tag them with
building=*according to their typology.

Stars
Currently, there is a proposal that is able to deal with all kind of ratings (such as stars, diamonds, etc.). See Proposed features/Awards and ratings. This system also proposes award:hotelstars=* for the European Hotelstar system.
United Kingdom Food Hygiene Rating Service
fhrs:id=*
In the UK, all premises that prepare or provide food are regularly inspected by the Food Standards Agency and given a hygiene rating of 1–5 stars. The UK community use fhrs:id=* to link to the official UK government Open Data on UK Food Hygiene Rating System. It is also an approved source for addresses.
Bathrooms
It's been suggested that the privacy of suite bathrooms be tagged. This would involve the key bathroom:privacy=* with the values:
fullFor when the bathroom is fully separated from the rest of the suite,translucentWhen the bathroom is separated by glass door or walls,partialFor when there are significant gaps that let sound through or could be seen through,noneFully open to the rest of the suite or transparent glass walls/door.
If multiple levels of privacy are present in a hotel, that may be indicated with multiple values separated by semicolon. In practice this is likely to be rare since most hotels have identical furnishings from room to room.
Additionally, check_date:bathroom:privacy=* should also be included.
