However, guests should not take items that are considered part of the hotel's property or inventory.

RECORDING, AUDIO AND/OR VIDEO - Public Areas have Closed Circuit Television Cameras conspicuously placed. There are no hidden cameras. We value a positive and respectful environment that is free of harassment and intimidation. Vloggers, and those with the intent to audio or video record are reminded as follows:
The Right to Record in Public Spaces
In the context of Philippine law, the act of recording events in a public place generally falls under the right to information and freedom of expression. However, these rights are not absolute and can be limited by certain factors such as privacy concerns, the nature of the event, and whether the recording serves a legitimate purpose.
Privacy Laws
The Data Privacy Act of 2012 outlines the principles behind the collection and dissemination of personal information. It is essential to distinguish whether the act of recording violates the personal privacy of individuals involved. As a general rule, people have a lower expectation of privacy when in a public setting as opposed to a private setting like their home.
Intrusion of Privacy
Even in a public setting, capturing video or audio may cross the line into invasion of privacy, especially if the recorded individual is in a compromising or embarrassing situation, and if the recording doesn't serve a lawful or legitimate objective. For example, an individual has a reasonable expectation not to be recorded in a demeaning or disparaging manner.
Defenses and Justifications
Lawful objectives like public safety or capturing evidence of unlawful activity could justify the recording, even if the subjects did not give explicit consent. Courts generally weigh the individual's right to privacy against the public's right to know or the individual’s objective behind capturing the incident.
Legal Consequences for Violations
Failure to adhere to privacy laws can lead to various legal repercussions, including but not limited to civil damages, and in some cases, criminal liability. The nature and severity of the penalties depend on the specifics of the case.
Conclusion
While it is generally permissible to record in public spaces, there are legal boundaries that must be considered, mainly centered on privacy concerns. The legality of recording a specific event may depend on a balance between the right to freedom of expression and the right to privacy. It's critical to understand the legal landscape to avoid possible legal ramifications..

We will require a Government-Issued ID such as your Passport, among others, Your guests, visitors, and joiners will also be required to log their identification in our Security Log Book and surrender a Government-Issued ID which shall be returned upon egress.

The hold will remain pending until the bank removes it from the transaction history, which can take up to a week depending on the bank. The length of time a hotel holds is released immediately upon checking out. Depending on your bank, the credit card deposit charge is usually reversed within 3–10 business days, unless there's a valid reason.
A hotel security deposit, also known as a breakage deposit or damage deposit, is a refundable payment that a hotel charges to cover potential risks during a guest's stay. These deposits can help hotels manage cash flow, prevent bad debt, and ensure that guests pay for their stay.
