Could it be that the people behind this place just hired the wrong consultants or interns? Did they really mean to name it the Socialist, or is that a poor translation of the Socialite? Like, why on earth wouldn't you call yourself the Socialite instead, given the option?
Not everyone has the same automatic associations with a given word that you have. Also most normal people aren't really worried that they might "catch the socialism" by staying at a hotel with this name.
