Hid a hotel around part of America (5)
I believe the answer is:
idaho
'part of america' is the definition.
(I know that Idaho is a is part of United States of America)
'hid a hotel around' is the wordplay.
'around' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'IDAHO' is hidden within 'hid a hotel'.
(Other definitions for idaho that I've seen before include "North-western state of America" , "US state E. of Oregon" , "found in America" , "US location" , "One of 22 Across, capital Boise" .)
