That's supposed to be the solution but wouldn't it take an infinite
amount of time for all the occupants to move? They can't all move
instantaneously. The occupant of room #1 has to tell the one in room
#2 to move and so on, ad infinitum.


The moving (ripple?) would take forever, but the inconvenience to each
occupant would be rather short lived. I'm more worried about the new
visitor. If there are already an infinite number of guests in the hotel,
where did the guest appear from? ... and are there fire regulations
being broken by overbooking the rooms?

Good point. I suppose the new visitor came from another universe. ;-)
