Can a hotel driver's license be used as an ID card?

You can't use a driver's license instead of an ID card to register in a hotel.

The driver's license is no longer a valid identity document and cannot be directly used for check-in procedures. Driver's license is a license that motor vehicle drivers need to apply for according to law, and driver's license is a kind of "quasi-driving license". It is not a valid identification document, so it cannot be registered in the hotel as identification.

Matters needing attention when staying in the hotel:

1 Do not fold hotel towels. If you stay in a hotel, don't fold the used towels neatly. Because if you fold the towels neatly, the cleaner will mistakenly think that those towels are newly put on. This way, the towel that should have been replaced will not be replaced.

It is forbidden to use high-power electrical appliances. If you want to cook eggs with your own big electrical appliances in a hotel, you'd better not do that, because the power of the hotel socket is very small, and using high-power electrical appliances may cause a fire.
