The American hotel industry was in for a shock when sportscaster and television personality Erin Andrews was awarded $55 million by a jury court in 2016 over recording and release of a video showing her naked during a hotel stay. While her stalker was deemed 51% responsible and asked to pay around $28 million, the hotel in which she stayed, Nashville Marriot, was to cough up the remaining 49% – more than $26 million!

The jury’s message was loud and clear. Yes, the prime offender here was the stalker. But the hotel had failed to provide the safety and security that it should have. If such a crime is committed inside a hotel premise, the hotel too becomes partially responsible for it.

This civil lawsuit brought to light the importance of safety and security that a hotel must provide its guests. A guest arrives at a hotel with the trust that not only will he or she be made comfortable, but will also be provided safety during the stay.

A simple Google search gives about 36,10,00,000 pages with tips for travelers, especially women, on how to ensure a hotel room is secure enough. These range from carrying their own portable motion detector alarm to double-checking windows each time they enter or leave the room.
