No router will be able to login to those hotels that have a login web page
(nowadays a minority).  The hotels where I have to login use your MAC address
to determine if you need to login again, usually once a day.  Some require a
password but most just require that you acknowledge their terms and conditions
for use of their network.  This means that you can not login with your computer
to gain access for your router unless you can configure the router to use the
same MAC address as the computer, some routers have the option to spoof the MAC
address.
