An hour.
Because you use the “an” when the noun that follows is pronounced with a vowel *sound*. It doesn’t have to be an actual vowel. Since the h in “hour” isn’t pronounced, it sounds like “our”, so you use “an”.
So it would be “an hour”, but “a house”. “An individual”, since it really begins with a vowel. But “a ukulele” or “a user”, since they sound like they begin with y’s.

An hour (if you said Hour and breathed on the H, it would have to be a Hour). In the UK we would say a Herb, but I think in the US it is pronounced without the breath and would be an herb. Also as in an hotel. Lots of people over here pronounce Hotel with a breath, so a hotel would be ok. There’s a proper word for the ‘breath’ word, but I’ve forgotten what it is.

an hour – because the h is not pronounced
thus whether to say an hotel on a hotel depends on whether that h is silent or not
