Mean to get a room at some hotel (6)
I believe the answer is:
denote
'mean' is the definition.
(I know that denote is a more specific form of the action mean)
'a room at some hotel' is the wordplay.
'a room' becomes 'den' (den is a kind of room).
'at' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'some' means to look at the middle letters.
The centre of 'hotel' is 'ote'.
'den'+'ote'='DENOTE'
'to get' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for denote that I've seen before include "Indicate, signify" , "Be an indication of" , "Need to (anag) - indicate" , "Stand as symbol for" , "Mean or signify" .)
