Hotel Security
- Figure
out the most direct route to and from your room. Be sure and locate the
fire escapes, elevators and the nearest phone. Many hotels are required
to put that information right on the inside of the main entrance door
to your room.
- Whether
in your room or leaving your room, make sure all doors and windows are always
locked. You may consider bringing portable door knob and door stop alarms,
or window alarms.
They are small affordable lightweight devices that will
sound an alarm when either a door or window is being opened. Lock your door at all
times!
- Before
you unlock the door ... use
the peephole to identify anyone at the door and only open
the door if
it is someone you are expecting. If someone you were not expecting
comes to the door, (without opening the door) ask them who they are and
what they want. If they say they are from the hotel and you were not
expecting anyone from the hotel, don't hesitate to call the front desk
and ask.
- Never
leave money, checks, credit cards, car keys or personal identifications
such as a drivers license, social security card or passports in your
room. Take them with you or lock them in the room safe if one is
available. Diversion
safes can be used instead because they look like ordinary items you
would use while traveling.
- If
you are traveling on business, or on vacation, prepare, but relax
in your hotel room with a door stop alarm, and any personal protection
alarms ready to protect you in your room.
Report any
suspicious behavior to
the hotel/motel manager and report any lost or stolen items to both the
manager and the police.
Being prepared
always gives you better options, and means a you will have more
confidence in a stressful situation.
