Motels differed from hotels in their emphasis on largely anonymous interactions between owners and occupants, their location along highways (as opposed to urban cores), and their orientation to the outside (in contrast to hotels whose doors typically face an interior hallway).
as far as i know, a hotel is more expensive, and better than a motel which usually can be rented for hours but not in a hotel though...
Motel - Motor Inn, you typically park right outside your room.

Hotels usually have two or more stories and are generally nicer, motels are one floor and have the ammentities of public housing.
To my opinion,the hotel is fancier,I think though!
a motel is designed for motor travelers (lots of parking near the rooms, one or two floors max)
To get to your room in a motel, you just unlock an outside door with a key and walk right in. To get to your room in a hotel, you first have to go inside, walk through the lobby, and down a hall to your room.
A hotel is bigger,and a motel is smaller
Motels have indoor corriders, hotels outside corriders
The first motel was in San Luis Obispo in California. The word was derived because they are designed to drive up to and you park near your room. They're generally more cheap and cheerful than a hotel, usually near major road intersections or on the edges of town. USA has Motel 6 chain.
