Re: Hotel Stay

I'd agree with everyone and say that it's legal to carry directly between your hotel room and your car under §46.02, since a 30.06 sign only applies if you're carrying under the authority of a CHL; still wouldn't be able to wander around the lobby or restaurant, but it would beat leaving it in the car overnight. Since you're not using your CHL, any 30.05 compliant notice would apply, so a gun-buster sign or verbal notification could be enforced. However, trespass is a reactive process in practice: if you see a no-shirt-no-shoes-no-service sign and no one actually tells you to leave when they see you barefooted, you haven't really trespassed in any practical way. Like Annoyed says, if you keep it concealed, you can't defy any orders to leave that are never given to you.
