All hotel guests will be provided with masks and disinfectants upon arrival, and their luggage will be carefully sterilized.

Hotels have been requested to have a safe distance between vacant rooms to reduce the gatherings of the guests. As for restaurants, food and beverages will not be allowed in them, but these services will be provided by room service through specific menus.
