Ha, this one is easy!

To hit the hotel, he first needs to travel 1/2 of the distance. But before that, he needs to travel 1/2 of the 1/2 of the distance. There's infinitely many halves, meaning he never reaches his destination!

Checkmate, motion!

Ah yes, the classic Grand Ship of Sissyphus Problem.

This has stumped philosophers since the dawn of the cretaceous.
