Fire safety for hotels and lodging buildings

In hotels guests are sleeping — often in unfamiliar surroundings. That makes early detection and unambiguous alarming life-saving. At the same time, false alarms must be prevented because they evacuate the entire hotel and lose guests.

Sector-specific considerations

• 01Sleeping guests — early detection is critical
• 02Unfamiliarity with escape routes
• 03Elevated fire load from textiles and loose electronics
• 04Insurance and chain policies impose strict requirements
