Rebroadcast wifi - possible?

Is it possible for my phone - Samsung Gnex - to rebroadcast a wifi connection as a new hotspot network?

My work laptop has lots of security which means that it can only connect to wifi networks where you select the SSID and enter a password, like on your home router.

But most hotel wifi works instead by redirecting web page requests via their own login page. Which won't work for my laptop.

So the idea would be to connect to the hotel wifi redirect using my phone, then rebroadcast it as a plain wifi network to the laptop.

Possible?

Thank you
