Prevaricate, seeing hotel has slight advantage (5)
I believe the answer is:
hedge
'prevaricate' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'hotel has slight advantage' is the wordplay.
'hotel' becomes 'h' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'has' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'slight advantage' becomes 'edge' (I've seen this before).
'h'+'edge'='HEDGE'
'seeing' is the link.
(Other definitions for hedge that I've seen before include "Be cautious" , "Bushy barrier" , "Prevaricate; boundary" , "Shrubby boundary" , "Windbreak" .)
