In G.K. Chesterton's essay "The Drift from Domesticity" he states that "...the hospitality of a house will always be different from the hospitality of a hotel." Please elaborate on this idea; explain why it is true or false. (Please only standard paragraph(s).)

Hospitality of the house is diffrent of that of the hotel, by my thinking the house is the symbol of the private and the hotel is more of an adventure... what's the difference between the two?

Hotel is moving place where is always the moving place full of changes and thats what some people need, but there is the stability and calmness of the house which will be same until you change something, people who wants to have something of their own and to upgrade something will always prefer the house,

On the other hand the people who want change and to be in the center of things will prefer hotel, it's that simple,

But hospitality of house and hotel is not necessary diffrent, you can feel like at home at hotel when you have right people around you amd you can feel like in the hotel or distant and not at home at the house.

I hope I have sticked to the theme
