- Abstract
- Hotels and guesthouses vary widely, both in structure and in outfitting and interior decoration. The safety of guests and personnel depends in any event on suitable provisions being made, which a) as far as possible, prevent fires from even occurring, b) offer no chance of spreading to a fire which has nevertheless occurred, c) ensure rapid detection of the fire and raising the alarm, d) facilities effective intervention by automatic equipment or hotel personnel until the fire department arrives.
