Employees in our hotel do not have access to the inernet. Can we still use Geedesk?

Yes. Your existing network topology would be users behind a firewall with policies in place to prevent them from accessing the websites on the internet. So you can whitelist Geedesk in your firewall to start using Geedesk.
