Insurance Coverage for the Hospitality Industry

Depending on the location of your business, you could host up to hundreds of guests each day in your hotel or motel. Each guest staying on your property or utilizing your services is a liability risk to your business.

A guest could trip and fall on the staircase leading to the second floor of your motel. If you serve a continental breakfast, there is a risk it could be underprepared and cause food poisoning to a number of guests before you are aware of the issue. There are also a number of accidents that could happen around a swimming pool.

Accidents happen to everyone, and it may or may not be your fault as a business owner. Hotel insurance helps you meet legal insurance obligations, protect your business, and care for your guests.

Take Care of Guests and Protect Your Business

When a guest chooses you for their stay, they are trusting you to care for their needs as long as they are there. This usually includes things like a private room, comfortable bed, wifi, and a complimentary breakfast. However, caring for your guests also includes maintaining the right insurance coverage.

Our insurance agents can customize your hotel insurance package and other policies to the needs of your business. Get peace of mind with a comprehensive insurance plan and then get back to serving your guests.

What Is Hotel Insurance?

Hotel insurance packages a number of important liability and property coverages for hospitality business owners. Bundling your insurance policies helps you save money and improve your bottom line.

Hotel insurance does not include insurance policies for workers’ compensation insurance and umbrella coverage. We always recommend talking to an agent to make sure your insurance covers all your business needs.

What Businesses Need Hotel Insurance?

Hotel insurance is designed specifically for hotels and motels. Insurance companies group together coverages most needed for those businesses and offer them in a convenient package.

Hotel insurance is written specifically to cover a large number of rooms, a certain volume of guests, and the variety of services offered by hotels. If your business has fewer rooms and amenities, you should talk to an insurance agent about what coverage is right for you.
