| I would highly recommend the Antenna. If you get one of the omni-directional antennas usually the ones that cost about 80 or 90 dollars they have several DB of gain, and you could easily cover several hundreds of feet of area. You might even be able to cover most of the hotel.
If you use a linksys wireless router they come ready to use these types of antennas with an N or TNC connection on the back. The best thing about linksys is they have 2 antennas. So you could have 2 antennas at different locations within the hotel expanding your range.
Get permission to have 50 ohm coax ran up into the ceiling above your terminal and take it as far up as you can get it then mount your antenna to a part of the building vertically if possible.
These antenna's are about 2 1/2 feet long, fiberglass about the diameter of 1 1/2 inches. with mounting hardware. The link the other person gave you should be good but here's another company friends have used to order antennas to extend their range.
One friend at his residence has a wireless router and wanted to extend the range, so he mounted one of these antennas just outside of his house on a pole up about 10 feet and half of his neighborhood can login to his wireless network now.
