Home Office location records for hotels are not based on county/county Ccuncil boundaries, but rather on lower tier authorities.

A response can be given for London by counting all the hotels in the contingency estate located within a London borough, but not for Kent or Sussex because the geographical county boundaries don’t necessarily match lower tier authority boundaries.

The available information is given in the table below.
