Boosting a wifi network wirelessly never works, especially if the network 
you're boosting is a little slow anyway. You'd only be funnelling multiple 
devices' Internet access through one connection anyway so it might end up being 
slower.

You would need to find an Ethernet socket in the hotel room then create a wifi 
network off that. There's usually one feeding the connection to the tv for 
payTV services but there's no guarantee it would be a publicly accessible 
network. 

I tried it once in a hotel in Liverpool and had to guess their IP subnet before 
I could get online, turned out I'd joined their private network and could see 
(but not access) the hotel server and office PCs.

I am thinking of taking an Airport Express with me on holiday.  I am hoping 
that it will boost the wifi in the hotel so that we will get a good signal in 
our bedroom. Has anybody had experience of this?
