Checklist For Fire Safety in Hotels

Can you see a minimum of two exits. • Check the floor where you room is located. ARRIVING AT A HOTEL Once you arrive at the hotel, here are some things to familiarise yourself with: • Read the fire instruction notice in your room or apartment • Locate your nearest fire exit • How to raise the alarm should you see smoke or fire • The agreed 'Meeting Point' if you should need to evacuate - as hotel staff need to know who is out of the building.

Having a "high" hotel room may give you a fantastic view, but be aware of the dangers and also make a mental note of an escape route in the event an emergency. • Request a room on one of the hotel's lower floors is a good safety option. Therefore, you might want to think about taking your own portable smoke detector. This may prevent the hotelier from providing the level of fire safety that you're accustomed to in the UK/Europe.

• Many countries have different fire regulations and procedures, as local regulations may apply to preserve the historic nature or aesthetic beauty of the property. Keep you and your family safe this summer by following these basic fire safety guidelines; BOOKING A HOTEL Thoroughly research your hotel before booking; • Check that your hotel is equipped with smoke detectors and sprinkler systems when you book.
