can an officer just go in and ask for the peoples name staying at the hotel without infringing rights ?

All your questions sound like homework.  Of course an officer can ask for the names of the people staying at a hotel.  The hotel doesn't have to provide it though unless there's a court order, but since it's "their" information they can choose to do what they want with it.  You have no right to force the hotel not to disclose your name, and any reputable hotel will gladly assist the police out.  \n\nIf the hotel has a state policy of not handing out names you'd be limited to suing the hotel for breach of contract.  You wouldn't be able though to prevent the government from not persuing you though on this since they did nothing illegal, and neither did the hotel.  The hotel broke the contract but absent a law stating they can't give out your name it's not illegal.

No, they are allowed to stay up to a certain number of nights, not sure how many it is but you could check with the benefits agency.

You cannot. It is the same as asking for a street adress with the only information being the first name. It's not possible.

As a police officer in Texas, I say yes do call.  You do not have to give your name or other information if you do not want to over the phone.  The police department may have caller ID, but the police officers SHOULD  not give our your name if you remained anonomous.  \n\nCall and keep calling each time it happens.  This creates a record.  It also pisses of the police when they have to keep going back for that same person.  Depending on your state and your laws, the process is different on what can happen.

Absolutely. They have the right to make sure that you aren't passing insider information about the company. I have one, but I do not give my last name, nor do I post any information that can say what company I work for, so they can't come at me for giving away information.

Yes, they can ask you either question. No, you don't HAVE to answer the question. After all, as you said, it's a free country. That does not mean, however, that you don't have to deal with the consequences of your actions. Do you think the officer really cares what the specific answer to his question is? More than likely they are looking to see how you respond to the question. Do you get nervous or defensive? Do you appear to be lying? Or whatever else they are trained to look for. Your refusal to answer the question may be just the excuse they need to detain you long enough to determine that you are who you say you are and are not doing anything wrong.

Was anything ever signed at anytime explaining their rights to do that? If not, then NO! They have no right to get into an employees personal belongings. \n\nIs there an HR department or a higher person this can be taken to? \n\nA few years ago I got very sick at work. My face was very pale, my pupils were dialated and I was sweating, the medics came, thought I had a stroke, it was low blood sugar, but that was not good enough for my supervisor, she went through my desk while I was gone, someone said that she was thinking that I was on drugs. I turned her in and HR said that she HAD NO RIGHT to do that and she got repremanded very much for it. I was taken in and drug tested but everything turned out fine. \n\nThat is personal property and if you did not sign anything saying they can search you at anytime, then it is not their right, they do not have permission to do that. That is why you sign papers. You give them authorization to do this or that. Make the manager show you the paper giving them permission to do that. \n\nThat's odd, hoped it helped

You have no option other than calling the police.\n\nThe employee needs to get a restraining order in place.

Contact the Police and/or the courts.  They are available at a minimal charge.

Unless the person is a Government (public) employee, you'd need to subpeona that information with a court order.  You couldn't just get that information because you were curious.

Better off to try renting a room from someone.\n\nApartment managers want references.

First of all, Washington can not expel anybody from a private establishment.  However, if the Embassy (or any other organization) has security concerns about persons who are in a position to do harm to their premises or to conduct espionage around their premises, they can certainly ask the business to kick out the guest/customer.  The business does not have to comply, but might want to in order to please the requester.  \n\nThis would be an entirely optional issue for a private hotel, who could have refused to do as asked, albeit with the warning that they would lose business.  Consider this: you have a neighbor who is obnoxious and playing music all night long and you can't sleep.  Do you have the right to ask them turn it down, yes.  If they comply, fine.  But can you force them to turn it down (without calling the cops)?  No.  If your neighbor wants to stay in your good graces (and not have you wake them up another time) they will do as you request.\n\nForeign governments routinely do this in order to ensure their safety and security.  However, the Sheraton is not a private hotel.  The Sheraton chain is a United States registered business, so the issue of asset control comes into play if the hotel did not voluntarily execute the request...see the article from reuters below.  By the way, I don't know if Mexican law prohibits hotels from evicting guests, but I doubt it.\n\nMEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Protesters waving Cuban flags blocked the entrance to a U.S.-owned Sheraton hotel in Mexico City on Tuesday, calling for it to be closed because it evicted Cuban officials on orders from Washington.\n\nAbout 30 people shouted "Yankees out" as they demonstrated outside the hotel over its eviction of the 16 Cubans who were staying there last week for a conference with U.S. energy companies.\n\nPresidential spokesman Ruben Aguilar said Mexico was looking into the evictions and would apply the full force of the law against the Sheraton if a crime had been committed.\n\n"It is an unacceptable application of a foreign law in our country, which goes against all principles of international law," Mexican Foreign Minister Luis Derbez said in a radio interview.\n\nStarwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide Inc., which owns Sheraton hotels, said it had been asked by the U.S.\nTreasury Department to tell the Cuban officials to leave the hotel because of the terms of the U.S. embargo on the island.\n\nMexican newspapers were filled with angry opinion pieces railing against perceived U.S. meddling in Mexico.\n\nIn Washington, State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said the Sheraton in Mexico City was a subsidiary of an American-owned hotel group and therefore subject to U.S. laws and regulations.\n\n"Very basically, U.S. law would apply to U.S. corporations or subsidiaries of U.S. corporations, no matter where they may be -- whether it's in Mexico City or in Europe or South America," McCormack said.\n\nHe said the Mexican government had contacted the State Department about the matter, adding that it was the Treasury Department that enforced these laws. "We view this as a matter of asset control," McCormack said.\n\nThe Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control, which enforces the embargo against Cuba, insists it is illegal to provide services to Cuban nationals and entities in third countries.\n\nAndres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the leftist candidate favored to win Mexico's July presidential elections, said the evictions were "in bad taste."\n\n"Foreign laws cannot be applied in our country," he said on his morning television show.\n\nMexico's relations with the United States have suffered a string of setbacks in recent months. There have been angry words over drug violence along their shared border, U.S. plans to build a border fence to stop illegal immigrants and the killing of an undocumented Mexican by the U.S. Border Patrol.\n\nMexico's friendship with Cuba als

While driving a rental hotel car in Mexico, I was asked once for $150.00 and I told them to take a hike, they asked for money again and I asked to speak to their commanding officer who was about 50' away and then they declined to let me speak to him. I was searched again and let go after about 30 minutes. you give in to jerks then you are lost as they think you are hiding something.

I don't exactly understand what you mean with your question, but here is the hotel's website, just in case:

The best person to ask is your local law enforcement agency. You may want to take down the officer's name and badge number, so you will have back up in case anyone challenges you, as it is very common not to know this information. Good luck!

The hotel can impose whatever age limit it wants but it would be very unwise for a hotel to rent to anyone under the age of 18.\n\nIn law if you're under 18 you can't enter into a contract so the hotel can't make you pay up.  Also, as they'll almost certainly want a credit card you'd have to be 18 anyway.
