How many homestays can I run by applying for a business license of a hotel management company?

I can't. To apply for a business license of a hotel management company, you can only engage in hotel management-related business, not hotel business. Because the hotel management company and the hotel industry are two different industries, the business scope of the business license is limited, and they can only operate businesses related to the business scope filled in at the time of application. If you want to operate hotel management and homestay business, you need to apply for the business license of the hotel management company and the relevant license or permit of the hotel separately before you can operate legally.
