did you run ipconfig to see if you actually getting and IP address from the DHCP server ?
on an IP based network you can't do anything with out an IP address. whenever troubleshooting you want to look at the basics first...

I've been dealin with the same exact problem all week with my wireless connection. Unplug your modem for about two minutes and then hit reset button on your router for 30 seconds. Then plug your modem back up and see if you are connected. If this doesn't work, I suggest reconfiguring your router and upgrading the firmware of your router. Go to your router's website for a free download of recent firmware updates, and then go into your routers configuration and update with the new firmware that you downloaded.

The hotel should have a set of steps to connect to their network, but if your connection is too low you can get continual errors like that. Each hotel has a unique set of steps to get connected, so you're best bet is to speak to them or ask for some instructions.
