Mandatory Kindness.
"The hospitality of a house will always be different from the hospitality of a hotel." The most obvious difference between the two settings will be money. A housewife or stay-at-home father/house-husband is not paid to treat the person or people they live with politely. They can choose, depending on their mood, whether they want to express kindness or not. At a hotel, however, the concierge expects a tip after ever so graciously hauling your dozens of bags to your room. The front-desk resident, housekeepers, cooks and janitorial staff must follow the expectation of proper hospitality, no matter how rude or cynical their guest may be, if they wish to meet their handsome check at the end of the week.
Living Spaces
A hotel is a blank slate. It understands that this is not where your life will happen. It exists for you to rest. To talk. To plan. To sleep. It is a refuge when needed, characterized by a specific emptiness that allows the guest to mold it around themselves. You can tug at the corners of a hotel room, find a specific number of beds, find one with a kitchenette or a mini fridge or neither. Pull it around you like a jacket you borrow from someone else.
A house is a living thing. It is already fit to someone or someones. It exists to welcome back. To comfort. To remind. It is always a refuge. Houses are tailored- they have spaces cleared for shoes, trimming here and there to accommodate changes in lifestyle. You cannot pull a house around you; it fits itself to you. It is a blanket with a patchwork of memories.
Neither one is really better than the other. They fit different needs and times. Maybe a hotel can become a house to some, after a long stay, when the nightstand becomes a laundry hamper and you know what setting to use on the coffee machine. Maybe a house can be a hotel, unfamiliar and blank when you're not accustomed to how the door to the bathroom shuts or the noise the window makes when you open it.
Maybe we live in a world where these things are not set anymore. Where money or business dictates where we sleep. Where we lay ourselves to rest. Where we are most comfortable.
Maybe a home or a hotel aren't places. Maybe they are states of being and mind and maybe that is the difference. Maybe that's why when we ask are you at home? we don't mean to ask if you are physically at your place of residence.
We mean, how do you feel?
Hospitality of the house is diffrent of that of the hotel, by my thinking the house is the symbol of the private and the hotel is more of an adventure... what's the difference between the two?
Hotel is moving place where is always the moving place full of changes and thats what some people need, but there is the stability and calmness of the house which will be same until you change something, people who wants to have something of their own and to upgrade something will always prefer the house,
On the other hand the people who want change and to be in the center of things will prefer hotel, it's that simple,
But hospitality of house and hotel is not necessary diffrent, you can feel like at home at hotel when you have right people around you amd you can feel like in the hotel or distant and not at home at the house.
I hope I have sticked to the theme
