Even if you build the pages dynamically, you can make the URLs look like static
pages, and not change often, such as using an internal record number, or a
short term for the hotel you reference, like this:

/O2db/hotelmaris/
/O2db/hotelhill/

or a bit more complex,

/O2db/hotelmaris/description.html
/O2db/hotelmaris/prices.html
/O2db/hotelhill/description.html
/O2db/hotelhill/prices.html

/O2db would be a script that takes PATH_INFO, and depending on the key displays
the dynamically created pages for that hotel. To a search engine, it would look
like a perfectly valid page that gets indexed, while at the same time you don't
have to mess around with the file system but build all the pages from your
database.
