The taxi driver may not have a clue what you are saying. The name of the hotel may be different in the local language. When planning your trip, be sure to get the name of the hotel as a minimum in the local language.
If you can get the address in the local language and even a picture of a map, that can be helpful.
After you arrive at the hotel, get a business card. If you have trouble finding your way back to the hotel, you can always show a taxi driver the business card.
