Can i have a class

Class Room{ ~Room(); virtual cost() =0; }

Class Hotel{ map rooms; /* */ };

will my hotel become abstract ? Can it hold the list of concrete Room objects that are derived from Room ?

AFAIK, virtual functions are not that slow to call. At least, this is my understanding of what happens when a virtual function is… >>> More
