Those ARE bee's. But they are solitary, not hive bee's like you're used to hearing about.
And they don't carry up insects to implant their larva inside - that's what parasitic wasps do, (but they make the victim's walk, not carry them).
One such wasp is the Jewel wasp:

But those are not found in these Bee Hotels. The tenants there are all solitary species of bee's (hopefully), not wasps.
