So let's assume that you have a hotel that exists in Boston, England and one in Boston, USA.  You'll have two rows in the database table.

 

This gives you any city that appears more than once.

 

SELECT * FROM myTable GROUP BY city HAVING count(city) > 1;

 

This gives you the number of times each city appears more than once.

 

SELECT count(city), city FROM myTable GROUP BY city HAVING count(city) > 1;
