This is almost definitely not true. I don't particularly like Airbnb but I would be very surprised if most hotels don't use services that do the exact thing described in this article.
Yeah. I feel like sometimes you'd want an apartment to properly experience the city life, if you're into that (I am). And that's basically the only shortcoming of hotels for me, because indeed, they're cheaper in 99% of cases.

I think there's a material difference between Hyatt refusing to host an event, and banning individuals for social proximity.
Hotels have stepped up their game, and AirBNB hosts have gotten so incredibly awful that I'm not sure how it's holding up.
It's almost always cheaper to stay in hotels than airbnb everytime I look. It has been this way for years.
Unless you want a whole house/cabin to yourself for the week/month (discounts) then hotels almost always end up being less fuss and cheaper.

Hotels can and do ban certain guests from booking if they've caused extensive problems in the past. Cruise lines do it too.
Heck, most hotels in my area have banned an entire class of people -- locals.
Locals are much more likely to trash their rooms.
