I don't see the problem here, they are generally already outsourcing the "ISP" part anyway to a company, and that company is generally already a ISP.
If I read the various links in the articles (most of them in Dutch), then one of the questions is if reselling services from an ISP, makes the reseller itself an ISP. The telecom regulatory body (OPTA) says yes, the association of hotel owners (KHN) says no. There are legal arguments either way.
