We're getting ready to provide VoIP Lines to a hotel (to go into an existing PBX) They have a Mitel system as well. The Feed lines to the Mitel are just POTS lines (started as straight POTS, now POTS out of a FlexT1), so I can't imagine there is anything special about 911 other than providing the hotel address. I'm guessing that the Mitel must do a ringback or notification to the front desk on a 911 call, but we are not involved in the PBX at all. The Pool Phone, and Elevator Phone both just ring the front desk on off-hook.

Carlos,

I did not know about these specific hotel 911 rules, so thank you for letting me know. Has anyone actually provided service to hotels, and can comment on this?

We have provided analog lines to a hotel, but then another vendor came in and put in what looked like an old school Mitel system. They didn't request anything fancy as far as e911 from us just the regular.

    You might already know, but there are a number of specific
    requirements for 911 calls from hotels, and lots of liability
    risk.  You will have to make sure you are compliant, and write up
    documents showing how you will maintain compliance.  I'm not an
    expert on this by any means because we just don't do hotel service
    at all.  During a recent 911 training, the presenter just
    referenced hotel challenges a few times but didn't go into it
    since we don't work with that industry.  One comment I remembered
    is notifying the front desk and security/facilities team in "some
    reliable way" which he didn't expound on.

        Anyone have recommendations on brands and models to deploy for
        a hotel? We use Broadsoft as our voip switch, but the though
        of using standard licenses for a 100 room hotel would be
        expensive in monthly license cost alone. Hotel only wants 10
        phone lines, so we are thinking about providing an onsite PBX
        with 10 SIP trunks as the input.
