Motels

In modern times, there is little or no difference between a Hotel and a Motel. This is largely true of Atlanta Motels too. The genesis of the term 'Hotel' comes from the French "hostel". This referred to a place where you could generally obtain travel services Atlanta such as entertainment and food.

A motel referred to a place where you could enter your room directly from the parking area whereas in a hotel the entry generally is through a lounge. By convention, motels are expected to be relatively cheaper than hotels, but you also end up sacrificing some of the amenities and comforts available in Hotels.

Today, most of these basic tenets have changed and the term 'Motel' has only one distinguishing mark from that of a 'Hotel' and that is the first alphabet. The Atlanta Motels in modern times too share this transition.
