What's the difference between a hostel and a hotel?

1. The difference between a guest house and a hotel lies in the different commercial nature, different customers, different scale, different decoration and different comfort. Hotels generally have comprehensive services, not only accommodation, but also catering, entertainment, shopping malls and so on.

2. Hostel only has the function of accommodation. Of course, there is also a equipped canteen, but entertainment and shopping are not allowed, and the comfort is relatively low, so it is more comfortable than the hotel. To put it simply, the grade of the guest house is not as high as that of the hotel, and the service inside the hotel is not as comprehensive as that of the hotel.

The guest house is badly decorated, and there is no other equipment except sleeping. Hostels are collective undertakings, hotels are self-employed and have advanced service units. Hostels are partly entrusted to business travelers by large enterprises, and hotels are common in some places.

4. The hotel has complete facilities and thoughtful service, and everything you need for your daily life. It is a way to pursue enjoyment. In fact, the guest house is also a hotel in essence, but it is generally subordinate to the unit and has some official nature, which is set up because of the need to entertain guests. Some units will give some subsidies to employees when they are on business trips. But now few people live in guest houses, and they all live in hotels or guesthouses.
