other than the sentence does not make any sense, why is it wrong to say "there are none hotels in the desert"?

"None" is a pronoun. The way it is used here is as an adjective acting on the noun "hotel".

You need to change it to, " There are no hotels in the desert." For one thing, the "none" had to be changed to a "no". Also, the sentence sounds like a statement, so there shouldn't be a question mark (?). And lastly, the punctuation mark at the end need so be inside the quotation mark(")

"none" is either an adverb or a pronoun. "no" in the sentence below is an adjective - modifying the word "hotels".

"There are no hotels in the desert"

Which is a correct sentence.

Hope this helps!
