Beginning July 27, InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) will require guests to wear face coverings while occupying indoor common areas of its hotels in the U.S. and Canada, an IHG spokesperson told Business Travel News.
Similar mandates were announced this week by the Hyatt and Marriott brands, both of which referred to guidelines outlined in the American Hotel & Lodging Association’s (AHLA) ‘Safe Stay Guest Checklist,’ released just last week for the very purpose of standardizing COVID-19-prompted health and safety measures at hotels and resorts nationwide.
