Morphology

hotel + room

The meaning 'a room in a hotel for guests' is directly and compositionally derived from 'hotel' (place for lodging) + 'room' (an indoor area). This noun+noun combination follows a regular, cross-linguistic pattern and would be immediately clear to a B1 learner who knows both constituents.

Etymology

Hotel room shows a simple picture: a hotel, a building for travellers, with a private room inside for sleeping. That's why it means 'a room in a hotel available for guests'.
