Guidance
Safety basics when staying at hotels.
Hardware you can use to reduce the risk of entry into your hotel room.
Tips
Use the ‘Do not disturb’ sign on your room when you are ‘out and about.’
Carry a plastic door wedge when traveling. Insert under the entrance door if circumstances require it. It makes it more difficult for an offender to enter the room.
Another option is a bell on a string – sensitive, effective and popular. There are commercial siren based devices, however you need to consider other rooms, the hotel outlook. You may be asked to leave the hotel, if it continues to activate or during quiet hours.
