Evacuation Diagrams forHotels and Accommodation

AS 3745-compliant evacuation diagrams for hotels, motels, serviced apartments, and accommodation providers across Australia. Remote service, no site visit required.

Hotels, motels, and serviced apartments must provide evacuation diagrams in every guest room and at key locations throughout the property. Guests are sleeping in an unfamiliar building, often in a city or country they do not know well. In an emergency, clear diagrams are essential because guests cannot rely on familiarity to find exits. AS 3745 applies to all accommodation buildings, from boutique hotels to large resort complexes.

Why Hotels Need Evacuation Diagrams

  • Guests are unfamiliar with the building and may be disoriented, especially at night
  • High occupancy during peak seasons increases evacuation complexity
  • Multiple levels of guest rooms with long corridors need clear exit route markings
  • Conference and event spaces within hotels have high transient occupancy
  • Fire safety is a core requirement for accommodation licensing and council approvals
  • International guests may not read English, so visual diagrams are critical

Where to Install Diagrams

  • Inside every guest room (typically on the back of the room door)
  • At every lift lobby and fire stair entrance on guest floors
  • Hotel reception and main lobby
  • Conference rooms and function spaces
  • Restaurant, bar, and pool areas within the property
  • Back-of-house areas including kitchens, laundry, and loading docks
  • Car park entry and exit points

Common Challenges

Accommodation buildings often have repetitive floor layouts, but each floor may differ slightly due to plant rooms, roof terraces, or conference levels. Room renovations and floor reconfigurations happen regularly. Hotels also need a large number of diagrams (one per room plus common areas), making cost and turnaround time real concerns. Serviced apartments in mixed-use buildings add further complexity because the evacuation plan must coordinate with the residential and retail components of the same structure.
