Hi,

I've yet to see hotel security - anywhere - that would reliably stop a gang of eight or ten heavily armed suicidal radicals that stormed the entrance.
Even well prepared soldiers can struggle - see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack...ard_checkpoint

So, in reality the question becomes what personal/team contingency plan are you going to have?

The first key decision is: 'stay put/run'

Once you have made that decision you can then make a plan based on the local circumstances. eg:

Stay put: where are you going to stay put - how can you secure it. what are you going to do about water food (The Taj Mahal hotel attack started on 26 Nov and ended on 29 Nov)?

Run: Routes exits rally points

If your company has selected the hotel, I would expect a threat assessment and advice to crews for each location.

HTH
