旅馆

• 拼音: lǚ guǎn
• 汉字拆解: 旅 = 方 (direction) + 从 (people following), meaning to travel; 馆 = 饣(food) + 官 (official), originally a place for hosting officials — an inn or hall

含义

Hotel; inn; guesthouse. A place that provides paid accommodation for travellers.

A general term for accommodation establishments. In practice, 旅馆 often refers to smaller, more basic hotels or inns, while 酒店 or 宾馆 are used for larger or fancier hotels. All three are understood by everyone. 旅馆 is perfectly natural in daily speech and is the most textbook word for hotel.
