Re: Hotel question

blwill wrote:Now here is the problem. I occasionally stay at the Hampton Inn in Allen, Tx. Just for fun I checked to see if any rooms were available for tonight. On the web page was a link to Hotel Policies. This is what it displayed:
Firearms Policy

Carrying a weapon on these premises is prohibited and violators may be subject to arrest for trespass under applicable law.

That to me is the same as the old Gun-busters sign.

Then I selected the Downtown/Market Square Hampton Inn in San Antonio, checked its Hotel Policies and got this:
Firearms Policy

Pursuant to Section 30.06, Penal Code (Trespass by License Holder with a Concealed Handgun), a person licensed under Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code (Handgun Licensing Law), may not enter this property with a concealed handgun.

Pursuant to Section 30.07, Penal Code (Trespass by License Holder with an Openly Carried Handgun), a person licensed under Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code (Handgun Licensing Law), may not enter this property with a handgun that is carried openly.

Checked a few other Hampton Inns in San Antonio and got the same message as the Allen hotel. It appears each hotel can set its own policy and we just need to check it out before we actually make a reservation. It's a pain but just what we have to do...for now.
say there is .06/.07 signs up and or your aware of the notifications online, is it legal to unholster and place your firearm in your luggage (not conceled on your person at that point) and enter the hotel? your not " Carrying "
