My experience is that most hotels offer something, though there is still a lot of variance. Some offer high speed cable and wireless connections throughout including guest rooms. Some offer high speed cable in the room and wireless in the business center and meeting rooms. Some don't offer wireless. Where wireless is available, there is usually no fee. In many cases there is no fee for high speed cable in the guest rooms. Sometimes there is a daily charge of around $10 for that connection, but I mostly find it to be free. I am fortunate in that my employer doesn't scrimp at the expense of my safety or comfort when I travel, but I don't think the variations are based on quality of hotel as much as location. Locations that attract a lot of business/tourist travel have more options and are usually offered without a lot of additional cost. More remote areas have fewer options and are more likely to charge.
