Most probably all of the three forms are correct. Just one slight correction. You arrive NOT to a hotel but AT a hotel. It's a very common error.

@marian333 Oh, thank you! I didn't know it... Is there a reason?
Is it common for foreigners or for English speakers too?

@salvatore-82 I don't know if there's a reason. English is not my native language. All I know is that "arrive" is followed by at (smaller places) or in (bigger places like a country) but NEVER by "to". Unlike in many other languages, Polish and Italian included. But why? 🤔

Actually, in Italian we wouldn't use a correspondent of "to" but one of "at". So probably it's the same.
