A router is primarily a layer 3 device that connects one network via a port to a switch on another port. Most home routers today come with an integrated switch (multiple ports). As such, a router would not contain a hub.
Some routers may also have built-in firewalls and VPN tunneling capabilities, including auditing and logging functionality. They may also contain DHCP and NAT capabilities which you typically won't find in a switch.
