The final rule establishes scoping requirements for accessibility of
newly constructed hotels. Four percent of the first hundred rooms, and
roughly two percent of rooms in excess of 100, must meet certain
requirements for accessibility to persons with mobility or hearing
impairments, and an additional identical percentage must be accessible
to persons with hearing impairments. An additional 1% of the available
rooms must be equipped with roll-in showers, raising the actual scoping
for rooms accessible to persons with mobility impairments to 5% of the
first hundred rooms and 3% thereafter. The final ADAAG also provides
that when a hotel is being altered, one fully accessible room and one
room equipped with visual alarms, notification devices, and amplified
telephones shall be provided for each 25 rooms being altered until the
number of accessible rooms equals that required under the new
construction standard. Accessible rooms must be dispersed in a manner
that will provide persons with disabilities with a choice of single or
multiple-bed accommodations.
