You`re going to Greece aren`t you....An Hotel is a big building with rooms and a restaurant where you have Breakfast, lunch and Dinner, and room service and a mini bar in the room and towels changed daily, etc and its expensive, or lets say, not cheap...





An Apartmenthotel is a big building with rooms a reception area that doubles as a breakfast room for those on ';half board';, towels get changed every three or four days and you are ';self catering'; so its cheaper or lets say less expensive (though when you take in the food you have to buy, or eat out every night..it can be more expensive than staying in an hotel where it`s ';all found';)What is the difference between an hotel and apartment hotel?
In an apartment Hotel the living quarters are usually self contained with cooking facilities so that you can cater for yourself if you wish but still has the usual facilities of an ordinary hotel


An Hotel is not for you to cater for yourself in the room(s) but to use the hotel facilities
A hotel is really short term. an apartmetn hotel can be more long term and is designed differently
An apartment hotel has a small kitchenette in the room.
