The "facility" is what's physically there- especially the building(s). The "establishment" is the business that operates there.

The terms "facility" and "establishment" have slightly different connotations and usages: 1. Facility: - Refers to a place, amenity, or piece of equipment provided for a particular purpose. - Often used to describe the physical aspects and the services available in a place. - Example: "The hotel has excellent facilities, including a gym and a swimming pool." 2. Establishment: - Refers to a business or organization, especially one that is recognized as a permanent entity. - Emphasizes the institution or business aspect of the place. - Example: "The establishment has been in operation for over 50 years." In the context of restaurants and hotels: - If you refer to them as **"hospitality facilities"**, you are emphasizing the services and physical amenities they offer. - If you refer to them as **"hospitality establishments"**, you are focusing on them as businesses or institutions. Both terms can be correct, but the choice depends on what aspect you want to highlight. **Correct usage examples**: - "Restaurants and hotels are hospitality facilities with various amenities for guests." - "Restaurants and hotels are hospitality establishments that provide lodging and dining services."

A facility is anything that customers may find useful such as toilets, parking, swimming pool etc. An establishment is referring to the whole place.
