But I can search on the web and find plenty of hotels that have both Fan Dian and Jiu Dian in their names. Yeah, that’s exactly what Jenny said, usually Hotel is Lu Guan and bar is Jiu Ba.

Jiu Dian sounds more like a liquor store than a bar to me. i’ve heard of people calling hotels Fan Dian before. there must be multiple meanings. perhaps back in the day most restuarants were also hotels so they shared the same name. i think nowdays it’s more common to call hotels Lu2 Guan3 and bars Jiu3 Ba1.
