RESOLUTION 2025-02
STANDARDIZE PLACEMENT OF WALL MOUNTED DISPENSERS IN HOTEL GUEST ROOMS
Submitted by: Ray Campbell
Whereas, over the past several years, many hotels are providing personal care products such as shampoo, conditioner, soap, and lotion using wall mounted, reusable dispensers located in the shower and sink areas of hotel guest rooms; and
Whereas, there is no standard placement or order for how these dispensers are organized; and
Whereas, Not having these dispensers placed in a standard order and location makes it difficult for hotel guests who are blind or low vision to know which dispenser is which; and
Whereas, This lack of consistency also makes it difficult for hotel staff to provide this information to guests who are blind or low vision.
Now, therefore, be it resolved by the American Council of the Blind in convention assembled virtually this XX day of June, 2025 that this organization work with the American Hotel and Lodging Association and major hotel chains to develop a procedure for the standard placement of reusable dispensers in the shower and sink areas of hotel guest rooms.
And be it further resolved that copies of this resolution be sent to the President of the American Hotel and Lodging Association, and the heads of major hotel chains.
