No, in England the word is nearly always used in the singular - accommodation (note, 2 'm's). The plural use of the word seems popular in the Indian subcontinent.

The word 'accommodations' is used but not in the context of lodgings in a hotel.
Hope that helps.

Accommodation (without the 's').
eg "The accommodation was luxurious with an en-suite bathroom and Jacuzzi."
Even in the plural..."There are different types of accommodation ranging from the basic to the opulent."

As has been said, the spelling you use is not the correct one for English people.
The corrected version is used, but rarely.
Far more often the singular equivalent is used.

We would use the word "accommodation" to mean a hotel or bed & breakfast.

If loaded, ie over 50 grand = to the hilton charles
If you well off ie over 10 grand = weres accomadation
poor, ie under 10 grand = were we slumming

Yeah, I don't think it's considered a swear word, more like "freaking". "Bloody hell" is a swear, though. "You're a freaking idiot", "You're a bloody idiot." Though I don't know where they got bloody.

Not usually, you would use "some accommodation" "lodgings" or something similar...
Or you could say "I'm looking for a fartbasket"
