But most of these hotels will exist already in osm. It's important to merge the data and avoid duplicates. hmm, you'd be surprised how many are missing, unless the names contain typos? Searching for "Holiday Inn" yields about 536 in GeoNames, not sure about Nominatim as there's no totals, but we have over 5000 of them. Is there a way of counting tags/objects without downloading planet.osm? try osmdoc http://osmdoc.com/en/tags/ if it's only ~500 existing tags it's reasonable to merge it manually in Josm.
