motelmotel, a related borrowing blending 'motor' and 'hotel'Etymology
Romanian borrowed "hotel" directly from French "hôtel" in the 19th century, as part of a wave of French loanwords tied to modernization. The French word descends from Old French "hostel" (lodging, residence), which comes from Medieval Latin "hospitale" (guest house). That in turn traces to Latin "hospes" (host, guest, stranger).
