HOTEL FIRE NEW JOURNAL-57
 

DUBLIN: TWO-ALARM FIRE AT RADISSON HOTEL STARTED IN SAUNA
05/09/07
DUBLIN (BCN)

A two-alarm fire that ignited a sauna in the spa area of a Radisson hotel in Dublin Monday was caused when someone left a towel on a heating unit, fire investigators reported.

Alameda County Battalion Chief Jody Naas said it remains under investigation today whether the fire was started intentionally.

Flames spread from the dry-heat, wooden sauna to the surrounding hotel area at around 10:30 p.m. Monday, Naas said. The fire was extinguished within around 15 minutes.

No injuries were reported and it remains unclear how much damage was caused to the hotel, Naas said.

The spa area of the hotel, the Radisson Hotel Dublin-Pleasanton at 6680 Regional St., remains closed today, according to Naas.<

Guests evacuated during hotel blaze


View GalleryGUEST were evacuated after fire broke out at Five Oaks Travelodge during the morning on Saturday May 5.

West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service say a radiator in a bedroom caught fire around 8.15am.

"It was caused by someone, probably a child, a former occupant of the room putting cardboard cards in the grille of the convection heater in the room," said Horsham fire station watch manager Ian Melville.

 

Downtown hotel evacuated overnight

05/10/2007

The Hilton Palacio Del Rio was evacuated Thursday morning due to a chemical scare.
According to officials, pesticides used by an exterminator set off a chemical detector inside of the hotel around 2 a.m. One person actually, when they were coming down the stairs, slipped, tripped and had a slight injury (and was) transported to the hospital," said District Fire Chief Lawrence Trevino. "We had a couple others complaining of sore throats coming down the stairwells saying they had an intoxicating feeling...the pesticides kind of hit them."

The pesticide was sprayed in the kitchen but got into the ventilation system.

When the first alert went off, hotel staff told guests go back to their rooms because it was just a false alarm. However, the chemical detector continued to go on and that is when the guests were asked to evacuate.

The odor was strongest on the seventh and eighth floors and guests were evacuated while Haz-Mat investigated.

One guest was upset about how the emergency coordination was handled.

"My problem is it was almost 30 minutes between the time the alarm first went off and any emergency equipment arrived on the scene. I mean 30 minutes is huge when you have an emergency," said hotel guest, Dr. Stuart Simpson. "If it had been a fire, the place would have been fully engulfed. It would have been terrible. It was a horrible response."

Mellieha hotel fire
A fire that broke out at the kitchen of the Seabank Hotel in Mellieha last night led to all the residents and staff being temporarily evacuated as a safety precaution. The Civil Protection Department despatched six fire engines to the hotel.

No one was injured.

The fire, which was reported at about 9.40 p.m. when the grill in the kitchen turned into a huge blaze, was controlled by CPD personnel.

Also on the spot were several ambulances
