a place that has rooms and services so that people can remain there for time

Hotel (noun) means: a place that has rooms and services so that people can remain there for time. It emerges from space, services, structure, people: the place structure provides rooms and services that allow people to persist there across time. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 10, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
