Are you saying I shouldn't have an should have done the EU261/2004 instead?
The airline is only liable for the €600 late arrival compensation. Any charges related to hotels/tours/cars at your destination are not the responsibility of the airline. (There shouldn't be any additional hotel charges; if you contacted the hotel then they should have held your reservation for arrival a day later). If you incurred costs at the airport of departure then these may be recoverable.
