FOR YOUR PROTECTION
WHEN MAKING A BOOKING
Nothing is kept or photocopied and is just to prove you are who you say you are
Do not worry if you wish to remain anonymous as in this modern world of terrorism,
we do need to know something in order to protect you, our customer and all visitors
If you cannot appreciate the need for this - then please find another hotel
If you prove yourself unworthy of our trust - and/or you disrespect our need for security and privacy
you will be asked to leave and no refund will be forthcoming:- the police may be involved and prosecution may follow.
I admit it is hard - as only this morning a guest went out and left the front door wide open behind him
and no one knew how long it was left open as we were busy elsewhere and - kinda - expect people to offer
us a responsible manner which today, someone clearly did not,
and this attitude is exactly what we are trying to guard against - as this protects you all.
Hamilton Hall is a MEN ONLY VENUE and while we have never - ever - had any homophobic -
or any problems since opening in 2000, we have always guarded against creating / being the cause
of any reasons to complain about us or to cause distress to our neighbours. We have always offered mutual
respect and have never had any problems in all these years.
After the Orlando massacre where 49 from the LGBT community were brutally gunned down and scores more seriously injured - we all need to 'step up' and take responsibility for not just our own well being but also of those around us, and we expect you to behave in a responsible manner when visiting Hamilton Hall. I am sure many in Orlando thought this would never happen and now are dead - brutally murdered on a night out with friends, and we must all be aware and watchful just in case.
I have been at Hamilton Hall since March 2000 and in all of this time, every local I have spoken to who knew the building before I moved here - and who now know it is a MEN ONLY VENUE: - and since being on the front of the local paper 3 or 4 tims and even on National and International TV - GLOBALLY - as a gay mens venue;- we have never experienced any form of homophobia except from gay men through e mail or on the phone ( says a lot huh ? )

If you do not respect the need for hightened security and if you think it amusing
to mess about and pretend to be terrorists then we may involve the police as
WE TAKE THE SAFETY OF ALL OUR PATRONS
VERY SERIOUSLY
We do not have security guards - CCTV cameras or any of the items many larger hotels may have
as we value your privacy and intimate moments whilst staying at Hamilton Hall and rely
ON YOU BEING RESPONSIBLE
If at any time you see something suspicious within Hamilton Hall please bring it to the attention of a staff member
Do not leave your phones, Lap Tops and iPads laying around the venue - as many have done over the years because they feel so at ease and trustful of others staying and we have never - ever - had anything taken, but for obvious reasons, we ask that you keep your things with you at all times or in your room.
