What fire safety measures are in place?
It is very important to bear in mind that different countries have different fire regulations and procedures, and that in some resorts local regulations, designed to preserve the historic nature or aesthetic beauty of the property, may prevent the hotelier from providing the level of fire safety that you’re accustomed to in the UK. When you first arrive at the hotel you should plan how you and your party would leave your hotel or apartment if the fire alarm sounds. To help, familiarise yourself with the following: • The fire instruction notice in your room or apartment. • Where your nearest exit is. • The ‘Meeting Point’ if you should need to evacuate. • How to raise the alarm should you see smoke or fire.
