Your query is incomplete as to what exactly you intend doing. Since Hotel has wider definition and various activities like running restaurants, bar and boarding and lodging etc...constitute the services. Further it is advisable to have a one to one discussion with a local Advocate/C.A specializing in setting up of businesses, so that you can have a clear idea as to what are the rights, duties, responsibilities and implications.
