I have following code, that displays on home latest posts. How edit this code to display recent posts from specific category? Because I need to display posts from 3 categories (Hotels, Paths and Blog).

<!-- LOOP START -->
<?php $the_query = new WP_Query( 'showposts=3' ); ?>
    <?php while ($the_query -> have_posts()) : $the_query -> the_post(); ?>
    <!-- THIS DISPLAYS THE POST THUMBNAIL, The array allows the image to has a custom size but is always kept proportional -->
      <div id="hotele"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"> <?php the_post_thumbnail( array(349,349) );?></a>
      <!-- THIS DISPLAYS THE POST TITLE AS A LINK TO THE MAIN POST -->
      <div><h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2></div>
      <!-- THIS DISPLAYS THE EXCERPT OF THE POST -->
      <li><?php the_excerpt(); ?></li>
      </div>
    <?php endwhile;?>
<!-- LOOP FINNISH -->

$args = 'showposts=3&cat=1,2..';

or

$args = 'showposts=3&category_name=category_slug_1,category_slug_2...';

<?php $the_query = new WP_Query($args ); ?>

Take look at WP_Query manual.

You can use

wp_get_recent_posts('numberposts=5&category=8')
