The hotel should really just fill its even numbers rooms first, then if another person turned up after you already have an infinity of guests, you just house this start of a new Infinity in room 1 etc

What if they filled in multiples of 3? They get vacant space for infinitr people twice. Well just fill people as multiple of infinity, so that infinite times infinite people can fill it in

Let's leave some space for all the types of infinities and only fill every hundredth room

Well every infiniteth room is better
