Mumbai (Maharashtra), July 8 (ANI): Hotels in Maharashtra on Wednesday resumed their services after the state government allowed them to operate at 33 per cent of their capacity.
However, 67 per cent will still be available for the government to use for quarantine and other purposes as mandated earlier.
Hotels are taking all precaution from sanitising cars to hand baggage of guests, from guiding them to maintain safe distance to make rooms completely hygienic and safe for them. The rooms are being cleaned and sanitised.

Keenan McKenzie, Hotel Manager, ITC Maratha said, “Anxiety levels are understandably there among the visitors but it is our job to assure them of their safety. While 33 per cent is open for sale and 67 per cent is for quarantine purpose, we are housing them on separate floors. We have identified each floor for guests, which completely reduce the contact between the guests and the quarantined people.”
