there are a few solutions to this problem.

use FlexBox

add display:flex to #box ( the container of the boxes ) , and then add width:calc(50% - 30px) to the otel-list-box . 30px because you will set margin left and right of 15px to each box

see snippet below or jsFiddle

body{
  background:#ccc;
}
#box{
  width:960px;
  margin:20px auto;
	display:flex;
	flex-wrap:wrap;
	 
}
.otel-list-box{
    position: relative;
    background: #FFF;
    border-radius: 5px;
    width: calc(50% - 30px);
	  margin:0 15px 30px;
}
figure{
      position: relative;
    overflow: hidden;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
}
.hotel-links {
    padding: 15px 15px 18px 25px;
}
ul {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
}
.hotel-links ul li {
    padding: 7px 0;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #d6d6d6;
}
.hotel-links ul li a {
    display: block;
    font-size: 13px;
    color: #000;
    -webkit-transition: color linear 0.4s;
    -moz-transition: color linear 0.4s;
    transition: color linear 0.4s;
}
.otel-list-box .otel-list-content figure img {
    border-radius: 5px 5px 0 0;
    width: 100%;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #faa82b;
    height: 172px;
}
.otel-list-box:nth-child(2n){
}

Using bootstrap , it uses FlexBox but it's better to build your whole HTML structure with bootstrap, it's more responsive and easy to use

body{
  background:#ccc;
}
#box{
  width:960px;
  margin:20px auto;

	 
}
.otel-list-box{
    position: relative;
    background: #FFF;
    border-radius: 5px;
 
}
.row-eq-height {
  display: -webkit-box;
  display: -webkit-flex;
  display: -ms-flexbox;
  display:         flex;
	flex-wrap:wrap;
}
figure{
      position: relative;
    overflow: hidden;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
}
.hotel-links {
    padding: 15px 15px 18px 25px;
}
ul {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
}
.hotel-links ul li {
    padding: 7px 0;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #d6d6d6;
}
.hotel-links ul li a {
    display: block;
    font-size: 13px;
    color: #000;
    -webkit-transition: color linear 0.4s;
    -moz-transition: color linear 0.4s;
    transition: color linear 0.4s;
}
.otel-list-box .otel-list-content figure img {
    border-radius: 5px 5px 0 0;
    width: 100%;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #faa82b;
    height: 172px;
}
.otel-list-box:nth-child(2n){
}

using display:table . this is more tricky as you need to insert another div, that wraps 2 otel-list-boxes

display:table on #box ; display:table-row on boxRow and display:table-cell on .otel-list-box

body{
  background:#ccc;
}
#box{
  width:960px;
  margin:20px auto;
 	table-layout: fixed;
	display:table;
	
	 
}
.otel-list-box{
    position: relative;
    background: #FFF;
    border-radius: 5px;
    width: calc(50% - 30px);
	  margin:0 15px 30px;
		display:table-cell;
}
.boxRow {
	display:table-row
}
figure{
      position: relative;
    overflow: hidden;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
}
.hotel-links {
    padding: 15px 15px 18px 25px;
}
ul {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
}
.hotel-links ul li {
    padding: 7px 0;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #d6d6d6;
}
.hotel-links ul li a {
    display: block;
    font-size: 13px;
    color: #000;
    -webkit-transition: color linear 0.4s;
    -moz-transition: color linear 0.4s;
    transition: color linear 0.4s;
}
.otel-list-box .otel-list-content figure img {
    border-radius: 5px 5px 0 0;
    width: 100%;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #faa82b;
    height: 172px;
}
.otel-list-box:nth-child(2n){
}

using JQ to make cols equal in height + float:left

var otel = $(".otel-list-box"),
    highest = 0;
        $(otel).each(function(){  
                if($(this).height() > highest){  
                highest = $(this).height();  
        }
    });    
    $(otel).height(highest);

body{
  background:#ccc;
}
#box{
  width:960px;
  margin:20px auto;
	
	 
}
.otel-list-box{
    position: relative;
    background: #FFF;
    border-radius: 5px;
    width: calc(50% - 30px);
	  margin:0 15px 30px;
   float:left;
}

figure{
      position: relative;
    overflow: hidden;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
}
.hotel-links {
    padding: 15px 15px 18px 25px;
}
ul {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
}
.hotel-links ul li {
    padding: 7px 0;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #d6d6d6;
}
.hotel-links ul li a {
    display: block;
    font-size: 13px;
    color: #000;
    -webkit-transition: color linear 0.4s;
    -moz-transition: color linear 0.4s;
    transition: color linear 0.4s;
}
.otel-list-box .otel-list-content figure img {
    border-radius: 5px 5px 0 0;
    width: 100%;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #faa82b;
    height: 172px;
}
.otel-list-box:nth-child(2n){
}
