Nope, I work at a hotel, and we also own a motel. Let me clear it up for you. A Hotel is usually many stories, has a large common lobby, and services such as food, room service, and such. Motels are a term meaning Motor-hotels. Or hotels for motorists. Motels are single level usually, and you can drive up, or close to, the entrance to your room. Hence the motor-hotel conjunction. But as we say here in the business when some one asks "What is the difference between a hotel and a motel?" we say "About $150 per night".

The word "Motel" is derived from hotel and motor. They sprang up through the country as a result of the interstates and automobile age.
They tend to be close to freeways, clean and reasonable in price. Think Motel 6, Quality Inn, etc. Doors can be either in or outside, but they usually have expansive single level parking lots for easy access for cars.
True "hotels" are classier establishments usually located in urban areas and such.
The words are used interchangeably sometimes.

Hotels have lobbies and you enter your room from inside the building. Making it ideal for family vacations. Motels you enter your room from the outside, making it ideal for cook methamphetamine.

motel indicates that it's a motor lodge, designed more for a one or two night stay to weary travelers who are driving long distances. hotels indicate a more home-like and elaborate room for total comfort, home and hospitality being the root of that meaning. ho = home, mo = motor (car). hope this helped you!
