Hi Axel, since I'm back to my home I currently can't check the hotel-configuration. But I've done another experiment:
within my Fritzbox-Router I activated the "guest-wlan" and connected with my netbook. From within the guest-wlan I'm able to activate the tunnel to the main wlan with the shrew-client!!! But I don't know why because I can't remember to have changed anything in the configuration. My guest wlan is also a NATted wlan. So I can't see any difference to the "hotel-wlan" (and from windows I was able to activate the tunnel also in the hotels). During lots of experiments with different configurations and tools I got lost a little bit. Maybe there are some dependencies on other IPSEC-implementations? On my notebook I'd installed the packages openswan and ipsec-tools before I installed the shrew-package. If you experiment with shrew you probably have to ensure that the other implementations do not interfere. So I deactivated the pluto-daemon (openswan) and the racoon-daemon(ipsec-tools), but I'm not sure whether this is enough. (btw all experiments with openswan and ipsec-tools were unsuccessful too. And none of all ipsec-implementations seems to support a reasonable tool for debugging connection problems. They don't seem to be interoperational out of the box because a normal user can't oversee the implications and dependencies of configuration-settings). As far as the kernel is concerned I'm using the current fedora-16 kernel (vmlinuz-3.6.11-4.fc16.i686.PAE) and only modified the rp_filter option. I'll keep you informed if anything more changes.
