Not only will that impact the venue employees and the event planner, but it can also significantly impact the satisfaction of the event attendees - and in a world where reputation is everything, that leads to problems to your bottom line.

The ADA covers everything from the number of rooms that needed to be accessible to guests who are deaf or hard-of-hearing to requirements for fire alarms and other safety equipment to TV captioning. Here are a few things to double check that you have available to hearing-impaired guests:

When booking a hotel room, there are certain basic amenities most people expect will be available to them. 24-hour access to a gym or pool is not a surprise in most full-service hotels and is even starting to become standard at focused-service properties around the world.
