when writing a letter do you write a hotel or an hotel
  

Top answer

In American English, you would say a hotel . The pronunciation is different in parts of the UK, however, where sometimes they leave off the 'h'. My Grandmother, who was from Staffordshire in Great Britain, always said 'otel--leaving off the 'h', so she would have said an 'otel.
