Depends on Airline, look at Airlines loyalty webpage regards spending miles on airline partners, you'll find some can some can buy (xfer) into hotel chains. Generically 1 airline mile = 1 hotel point transferring Airline->IHG. (minimum xfer and set multiples only). Maybe choice of more than 1x hotel chain eg IHG/HH/MR and maybe different xfer ratios
Going the otherway Hotel->Airline, 10k Hotel - 2k Airline Miles (xfer in multiples of 10k)
