  • Delete. Non-notable, trivia. Then there will be List of Railway Hotels, List of Bridge Hotels etc. WWGB (talk) 05:25, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Big WP:DIRECTORY violation and not a chain; if we don't have this for Travelodge we shouldn't have it for a group of hotels only related by having the same name and containing rooms with beds (well, I hope on the last one at least). Nate (chatter) 05:54, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for all of the reasons above but... looking at Royal Hotel (a disambiguation page), I was very surprised that out of this very long list of hotels, only one (Royal Hotel, Maryborough) appears to be the subject of its own article. I would think many more of these hotels would have long histories, so this list could provide a good launching block for the folks at the Australian Wikiproject and the respective state projects to find individual hotels worth creating articles about. I wonder if there is a place, e.g. the Aus wikiproject space, where the list can be moved and examined for article candidates. AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 00:24, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Don't have any problem with the dab Royal Hotel as a rule only entries with articles should appear on them.Ajf773 (talk) 00:30, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • Sorry, I obviously wasn't clear. I meant to say that, of this long list of hotels, I was surprised that there was only one link to an article on a hotel. The rest of the links are to the suburbs/towns that the various hotels are in. So I had a look at the dab page, expecting to see many articles on hotels in Australia, but was surprised that there was just the same single article. Of course they should only appear on the dab page after an article has been created. I was just expecting there to be more already. Therefore, this list may be useful for people looking for articles to create. AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 01:56, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as clear advertising and there would be no hopes at all for actual improvements. SwisterTwister talk 04:52, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
