it would be illegal if the hotel rooms or indeed shelter was classified as an "essential good or service".
sadly we do not live in that world because "essential good or service" is food(grocers, not other sources.) + water + heat (only in some places and only in the winter months). strangely shelter is not on that list.
I thought this sort of profiteering was federally illegal. I know it is in my state.
