\"galerie commercante dans l\'hôtel\" should have been called in-house shopping, but it could also be that

Le boutique hotel signifie qu\'il s\'agit ici d\'un hôtel déjà orienté vers le shopping et je suppose donc que l\'idée de permettre aux clients de faire leurs achats sans quitter la chambre coule de source

neutral  Richard Benham: None of these Gallicisms--even in French! It's "shopping" in every language! ADD: Language evolves; get used to it!

  -> Le Larousse donne "shopping" comme un terme anglais : action d'aller dans les magasins pour regarder les vitrines, les étalages et faire des achats. D'où un déplacement implicite, ce qui n'est pas le cas ici au contraire.

Il semble qu\'on ne puisse acheter que des cadeaux souvenirs a emmener, a partir d\'une liste fournie par l\'hotel, pour eviter aux gens de courir les magasins inutilement. c\'est une liste de cadeaux soigneusement selectionnes, des oeuvres authentiques.
