Motel means that you can park the car in front of your room if you are on the ground floor and Hotel means paid lodging with number of services such as meeting rooms, swimming pools, restaurants etc.

"Hotel," according to Merriam-Webster, originated in the year 1765 and comes from a French word for an establishment that provides lodging, meals and other services. "Motel" came along much later, in 1925, according to Merriam-Webster. It blends the words "motor" and "hotel" and is meant to describe an establishment that provides some, but not necessarily all of the services associated with a hotel. Motels, according to San Jose State University communications professor Andrew Wood, are an entirely American phenomenon: They originated as inns along the country's first major motorways, offering rest to weary explorers and families on vacation.

A motel is derived as a motor hotel.It can be described as a one or two storey build structure with rooms and opens to the exterior,usually surrounded by common balcony.A hotel is a multi-storeid building structure. It has a rooms open to the interior of the building,along a  hallway. Besides this, the major difference is the locality of motel. Motels are mainly situated at highways,villages,cities and town where travelers can spend their night. Hotels are commonly located in the middle of the cities or touristrial area.

Hotels - with some exceptions - have interior corridors, and you leave your car in a parking lot, enter through a main lobby, maybe take an elevator, and walk down an interior hallway to your room. Motels (the term 'motel' originated as a portmanteau word for 'motor hotel') have exterior corridors: you can park directly in front of your room (quite often, if you're on the ground floor, you can park directly in front of your door)
