Content

There are several editions of Hotel, if we exclude the travel editions we can resume the content of a standard box. Beware that many editions are different between each other, if you want to check the componenents for each edition please check the edition menu or go here

BOX

Each game has its own colourful full telescope rigid cardboard box of different dimensions, based of a box lid and a box base inside of it. Sometimes it's included a box divider made of plastic or cardboard which helps to keep the various components in order.

BOARD

The board is make of hard carboard, mainly foldable in two or four. Over this board is where all the game happens: there is a path that players must travel in circle. Around the path there are several spaces where they can perform different actions. All around this path there are the hotel areas

HOTEL BUILDINGS

There are 8 different hotels called with different names depending the editions. Each hotel is made of a different number of buildings. The single buildings are made of a paperboard wall and assembled together with a base and a roof made of plastic. Some buildings may have additional pieces (like the famous lampposts of Royal)

FACILITIES

For each group of building that form an hotel there is a "facilities" piece of cardbox, except the Asterix edition.
