Abstract:
Nowadays, Hotel business plays an important role in Thai's society and economy. Therefore, Thai government has found Hotel Act B.E. 2547 to promoet and support the standard as well as to supervise the hotel business in order to suit the variation of the hotel business. This thesis has an objective to study and analyze the legal measrues concerning the promotion and supervision of Hotel Act B.E. 2547. The study reviews the problem and obstacle to enforce the law which would lead to the revision in the future. From my research, I have found that Hotel Act B.E. 2547 relating to the promotion and the supervision of the hotel business is inefficient. For instance, the regulations relating to the license cancellation of the hotel entrepreneurs, who are juristic entities, are not efficient. According to Hotel Act B.E. 2547, the administration is authorized to regulate or to hold the sub commission to enforce the law. However, the law and regulations have not enacted to achieve the objectives of this Hotel Act. Besides, other laws relating to the hotel business do not support the enforcement of Hotel Act B.E. 2547 such as ministerial regulation of Building Control Act. Accordingly, I fully support the revision of the legal measures relating to the promotion and the supervision of the hotel business, namely the revision of Hotel Act B.E. 2547 relating to the license cancellation of the hotel entrepreneurs should be put in the as same standard and also the revision of the law relating to the exception for other accommodation business which is not clearly defined as the hotel business. Besides, new law and regulations should be push to fully enforce the hotel business. The study of the license procedure relating to the license denial should be done urgently to achieve the objectives of the hotel law. There should be the revision of other related law as well in order to support the enforcement of Hotel Act B.E. 2547.
