4. Circulation pattern in the banquet/function hall are separated from the main hotel lobby to avoid the conflict in assisting
accommodating guest. Also to avoid joining the accommodating guest from non hotel resident. In some cases there are group of hotel
guest that arrived for a conference or a business activity or meeting (e.g. Team building, seminar, meetings). There are cases that upon
arrival, they go directly to the designated function room before going into their designated/assigned room. So it is important to have a
separate activity flow for this such kind of circulation to avoid traffic in user.
Other cases that happen in the event hall are multiple inquiries of hotel non-resident, event guest or attendees. This will make conflict
in prioritizing hotel guest to accommodate. So it is important to put a separate entrance for this kind of user.
