Four Seasons has been guided by the timeless wisdom of the Golden Rule: to treat others as you would have them treat you.
During these uncertain times, the Golden Rule is a beacon that shapes the way forward.
At Four Seasons, this means caring for each other, taking responsible actions to stop the spread of COVID-19, and protecting our people and all who choose to stay or live with us. Importantly, it also means continuing to offer a comforting and enjoyable experience to our guests and residents, and a safe workplace for our employees around the world.
As we look ahead to the future of hospitality and travel, we are implementing full-scale enhancements to our already stringent health and safety procedures. We have embarked on an important collaboration with Johns Hopkins Medicine International, the global division of health care and research leader Johns Hopkins Medicine, to validate our new global health and safety program, Lead With Care, and provide ongoing, real-time guidance on the evolving COVID-19 situation.
Grounded in health care expertise and enabled by access to leading technologies and tools, Lead With Care sets out clear procedures that educate and empower employees to take care of guests and each other. The program is focused on providing care, confidence and comfort within the new COVID-19 environment and beyond.
We are pleased to collaborate with the world’s leading experts at Johns Hopkins on this important initiative, and we encourage you to learn more about Lead With Care here.
The Four Seasons experience may look different in this new environment, but it will feel the same; ultimately, it will still be our people delivering the same attention to detail, intuitive service and personalized care for which our brand is known and trusted for the world over.
A key part of this service experience will continue to be the Four Seasons App. As one of the only industry platforms powered by real people on property, this award-winning service will further allow guests to control how they engage with our employees – limiting face-to-face interactions while maintaining the highest levels of Four Seasons service that our guests know and love.
Features include the ability to make and manage reservations, request luggage pickup, airport transfers, room service, restaurant and spa reservations, and much more. Wait-free check-in and check-out is also offered, while Four Seasons Chat integration offers instant translation of 100+ languages giving guests the option of contactless engagement throughout their stay.
We also understand your need for flexibility when planning future travel and visits to your local Four Seasons hotel or resort. To that end, we encourage you to review our latest cancellation policy here, and to contact a member of our reservations team to discuss your future plans.
At Four Seasons, we remain wholly filled with a love of travel. Our brand is much more than a collection of hotels, resorts and residences. We are a community of travellers – people who are passionate about the world around us, in awe of its wonders, and continuously inspired to share their travel experiences with others.
We invite you to continue to join us online and share your favourite travel stories and memories, as well as the people and places inspiring your future travels.
Thank you for your understanding and support during this challenging time; we look forward to welcoming you again soon.

Hyatt remains committed to providing safe and clean environments and to upholding the highest standards of cleanliness at all hotels globally.
Guided by Hyatt’s purpose of care and experience delivering world-class hospitality for more than 60 years, our Global Care & Cleanliness Commitment further enhances existing operational guidance and resources around colleague and guest safety and peace of mind. This multilayered commitment will build on Hyatt’s existing rigorous protocols and include an accreditation process by the Global Biorisk Advisory Council (GBAC) at all Hyatt hotels around the world, colleague training and support resources, and a cross-functional working group of medical experts and industry professionals that will contribute to various aspects of the hotel experience.Global Cleanliness Accreditation
In May 2020, Hyatt plans to introduce a GBAC STARTM accreditation through a performance-based cleaning, disinfection and infectious disease prevention program that will focus on establishing hotel environments that are sanitary, safe and healthy. The GBAC STARTM accreditation will include detailed training at more than 900 Hyatt hotels worldwide, and Hyatt intends to complement this with regular internal and third-party auditing.
GBAC is a division of ISSA, the worldwide cleaning industry association, and is composed of leaders in the area of microbial-pathogenic threat analysis and mitigation, designed specifically to deal with biological threats and real-time crises like the COVID-19 pandemic.
Hotel-Level Sanitization Specialists
The wellbeing of colleagues is at the heart of Hyatt’s business and core to advancing care for guests and customers. In response to COVID-19, Hyatt is continuing to develop new work procedures and mandatory trainings in an effort to ensure safety for colleagues and guests.
As part of Hyatt’s Global Care & Cleanliness Commitment, by September 2020, every Hyatt hotel will have at least one person on property trained as Hygiene Manager, who will be responsible for their hotel adhering to new operational guidance and protocols, some of which may include:
Cross-Functional Panel of Industry Experts and Professionals
At the onset of the COVID-19 crisis, Hyatt assembled a global cross-functional response team and engaged infectious diseases and occupational health experts to support efforts with COVID-19 research findings and information, which enabled Hyatt to promptly update detailed guidance to hotels and address specific needs and situations.
Hyatt continues to engage additional medical experts and leading industry professionals as part of its commitment. The goal of the working group will be to provide counsel on key areas of Hyatt’s business, challenging Hyatt to act even more holistically in this new environment. Topic areas include:
Hyatt’s Global Care & Cleanliness Commitment is an important expression of our purpose to care for people so they can be their best—now and in the future. We want every Hyatt guest and colleague to feel confident that each aspect of our commitment is designed with safety and wellbeing in mind.

OUR PLAN
CREATING TRANSMISSION BARRIERS ENHANCING SANITATION
Transparent screens, plexiglass shields or other physical barriers
may be installed in areas such as desks, booths, fitness centers or
food stations.
Hotels will implement touchless or low-touch solutions and
adopt contactless technologies including:
Mobile Key, Mobile Dining, Mobile Chat and guest requests via
the Marriott Bonvoy™ app.
Guest greetings will be modified to a nod, wave, or a bow,
while continuing to ensure guest needs are met.
Less Contact, More Connection
Guests and associates should practice physical distancing by
standing at least 6 feet (2 meters) away from other people not
traveling with them. Certain areas, such as arrival queues or
gathering areas will be marked with signage and, if necessary,
one-way guest traffic flow will be indicated.
Where applicable, lobby furniture, restaurant layouts, and other
public seating areas will be reconfigured. We are happy to work
to customize seating capacities and room sets to meet
individual distancing needs of group customers.
Physical Distancing
All associates that wear a Marriott badge will wear a face
covering as a part of their uniforms.
Guests should wear personal face masks or coverings and
should abide by local regulations.
Personal face masks and additional amenity items such as hand
sanitizer, disinfecting wipes and gloves, may be offered where
available.
Providing Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE)
We have initiated plans to roll out enhanced technologies at our
properties over the next few months, including electrostatic
sprayers and the highest classification of disinfectants
recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention and World Health Organization to sanitize surfaces
throughout hotels. While guests may not see these technologies
immediately, these sprayers can rapidly clean and disinfect
entire areas and can be used in a hotel setting to clean and
disinfect guest rooms, lobbies, gyms and other public areas.
In addition, we are testing ultraviolet light technology for
sanitizing guest room and shared devices.
Leveraging
Technological Innovations
Enhanced cleaning protocols will require frequently disinfecting
high-touch items and sanitizing restrooms frequently and after
high-guest use, with focus on using the right chemicals and
procedures to kill COVID-19.
Deeper, More Frequent
Cleaning
We’re building on our reputation for high standards of hotel
cleanliness with well-established cleaning processes. In addition,
each property is required to have a Cleanliness Champion to
help lead the hotel in how it can ensure guest and associate
safety. Additionally, associates will be required to take training
on COVID-19 and safety and sanitation protocols.
Cleanliness
Training
Each hotel will be required to have a hygiene plan; associates
will be required to be aware of and follow for personal hygiene,
social distancing and PPE, in compliance with all federal, state
and local public health guidance.
Hand sanitizing stations for guest use will be placed in all hightraffic
areas and public spaces.
Emphasis on Hygiene
& Cleanliness
Each hotel will be required to have a hygiene plan; associates
will be required to be aware of and follow for personal hygiene,
social distancing and PPE, in compliance with all federal, state
and local public health guidance.
Hand sanitizing stations for guest use will be placed in all hightraffic
areas and public spaces.
Emphasis on
PROMOTING HEALTH SCREENING NOURISHING THE ‘NEW NORMAL’
Where allowable by law, hotels may have a place at entry points
for discreet and non-invasive temperature checks for associates
and vendors. Where required by law, guests may also be
required for screening.
Those with a temperature at or over 100.4°F (38°C) will be
subject to secondary screening. Those confirmed to have a
temperature at or over 100.4°F (38°C) will be denied entry and
be directed to appropriate medical care.
Thermal
Screening
Guests are critical in preventing the spread of COVID-19 and
other infectious diseases. To fulfill this responsibility, hotels will
provide COVID-19 related signage and materials describing
good health practices.
Signage will be posted to remind guests of social distancing
guidelines and hygiene practices to prevent the spread of
disease.
Associates are educated on the proper way to wear, handle,
and dispose of PPE, as well as the appropriate way to wash
hands, sneeze, and to avoid touching their faces.
Guests and Hotels:
A Shared Responsibility
Hotels continually monitor and become educated on
requirements and guidance from local health authorities and
practice those requirements throughout the hotel.
Where testing or treatment of guests or associates is needed,
hotels will provide appropriate resources to the available local
public health options.
Guidance to
Local Public Health Resources
Hotels will respond swiftly to associate and guest health
concerns and follow all current public health guidelines.
Associates feeling sick are encouraged to stay home. Those
exhibiting symptoms will be required to self-isolate from the
onset of symptoms and meet applicable public health criteria
before returning to work. Additional protocols specific to
COVID-19 are in place and summarized below.
Associate & Guest
Health Concerns
When serving food and beverages, hotels will continue to follow
guidelines from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA), as
well as the National Restaurant Association’s longstanding
ServSafe program, and other international government agencies,
as applicable.
Marriott’s food and beverage operations are required to conduct
self-inspection using the company’s food safety standards.
Supplementing our Food Safety Protocols
with ServSafe Guidelines
In restaurants and bars, items such as condiments, silverware,
glassware, napkins, etc. should not be pre-set on tables, to allow
for effective disinfection in between each guest. Sealed,
packaged, or single-use silverware, disposable or digital menus
may be offered as alternatives.
Self-service items that can’t be disinfected after guest use, such as
ice scoops, candy/fruit bowls, must be removed and replaced with
alternative options, such as pre-packaged or associate-attended.
Payment methods may be modified to reduce handling of guest
personal property, including use of trays to pass items, QR codes,
or offering self-service pay-at-table options where possible.
Eliminate or Modifying
Shared Use / Reuse Items
Traditional in-room dining may be modified to either no-contact
delivery methods or pick-up / grab-and-go. All packaging and
products should be single-use and disposable.
We will continue to source responsibly while working to reduce our
environmental impact.
Grab & Go and
Pre-Packaged Items
Traditional in-room dining may be modified to either no-contact
delivery methods or pick-up / grab-and-go. All packaging and
products should be single-use and disposable.

Commitment to Care Global Health and Safety Program
Our commitment to our guests, our associates and to our community
In the recent months, we have faced unprecedented changes and challenges as a result of the global COVID-19 health situation. Through it all, the well-being and health of our guests and associates has taken, and will continue to take, central priority. As we begin to adapt to a new normal, we are committed to operating to the highest levels of health and safety vigilance, providing you with the safest, most comfortable and flexible experience while enjoying the high standard of service expected of Rosewood Hotels & Resorts.
Guided by local and international health experts, and in compliance with our partners Ecolab and Diversey, we have introduced Commitment to Care, our new global health and safety program that will offer heightened standards for hygiene and cleanliness at all Rosewood properties around the world. By continuously enhancing our stringent health and safety protocols, we would like to personally ensure the well-being of every guest, visitor and associate, from the moment a reservation is confirmed till check-out.
Enhanced Safety and Cleanliness
We have introduced intensified hygiene and safety measures across all major touch points in our operations, in accordance with guidelines issued by local health authorities and the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This includes the increased cleaning and disinfecting of common touch points, e.g. lobby areas, public bathrooms and elevators, and the regular cleaning of all air filters and air conditioning systems. We also continue to explore and test new technology to elevate our sanitization methods such as electrostatic sprayers, foggers and UVC light. All guests and associates will, upon returning to work or entering the hotel, be required to have their temperature checked, where legally allowed.
Personalized Care
Our properties will offer alternative check-in and check-out options, contactless in-room dining options, parking and housekeeping services tailored to guests’ needs and comfort. Specialized care kits will be provided to all guests including face masks, disinfectant wipes and hand sanitizer (gloves will be available upon request). Social distancing will be observed throughout our hotels, with reduced capacity in relevant locations, e.g. lobby areas, elevators, dining, fitness and spa facilities.
Guest Room Protocols
We have elevated our rigorous cleaning procedures for all guest rooms in compliance with our partners Ecolab and Diversey, and introduced additional safety measures such as avoiding back-to-back usage of rooms to allow for deeper sanitation practices and changing of pillow protectors and mattress pads between each guest.
Exceptional People, Exceptional Experiences
The health and safety of our associates has been of the utmost importance during these times. Wellness checks for all associates, training on personal protective equipment and mandatory wear as per local guidelines will be conducted, including the introduction of Health and Safety Ambassadors, to implement and oversee all new practices, procedures and trainings.
All associates will undergo mandatory health and safety training, including enhanced cleaning protocols as guided by our partners at Ecolab and Diversey and personal hygiene training, ensuring a safe working environment at all Rosewood hotels and resorts.

This epidemic has impacted the lives of many of our associates and our local communities in which we operate. In response we launched Rosewood Raise in April 2020 in dedication to their steadfast effort and support.
