To those people who deleted hotel bedrooms because they didn't want townies staying there (and who does), I have these observations. I imagine Maxis built the hotels with lots of bedrooms because you can take up to 8 people on holiday with you when you go and your hotels will need at least eight beds to accommodate the maximum number. I realised this last night when I was making a hotel (a nice pagoda) for my 8-member family to stay it. With little areas for eating food and ensuite bathrooms, TVs and wardrobes, it takes a lot of room. Also, FYI, you don't get any holiday-makers if you use the clean templates before you generate the holiday hoods - it works just like the dorms, lots of empty rooms that stay empty.
I thought of that while making a base template hotel (rather then build a few, I made one and used copies of it). It has 2 bedrooms (1 suite) and I made sure I could fit more beds in if I need them without needing to add on. I know you can visit other hotels and wasn't sure if tourists do so I built a recreation center in a separate building with a food stand placed between them. Looks nice, in the mountains the Hotel looks like two mountain cabins. I redecorated it for each vacation subhood.
It was to late for my new hood to use empty templates but is there one that just affects those vacation townies that get dumped into your hood before you even attach the vacation subhoods? Those are the only ones that annoy me and it'd save me having to clean them out when I make my next new hood. The clean template thread just got me all confused so I quit looking.

Yes, there were 4 hidden hoods that came with BV - and one of those is the blasted Traveller family which I excised from my game as soon as possible. Argon posted the empty templates on the thread in Peasantry about building a clean neighbourhoods with the templates.
Sorry, you said you got confused (note: read ALL the message before replying, Jen) - I'm trying to find the right post, hang on.
OK - it's

Message 258 - the V001 sub-hood is the one that contains (or in this case, doesn't) the Traveller family. So that's the one you need to replace in the game files.

Thank you!
Do you know if new vacation locals would spawn with the correct clothes and stuff? If they do then I wouldn't mind using those empty templates too. I'm not up to making my own.

Sadly locals spawn with random clothes...
