Three people suffered smoke inhalation during this morning's blaze.
Bateman says they are being treated at a local hospital adding there is no threat further to hotel guests.
"The smoke likes to stick around especially oil smoke - it's very dense. What's going to happen is we're going to have to open the windows, ventilate the premises just for people that might have an acute problem like asthma or something similar.
"If you don't vent it properly, they're going to come into the room and a few minutes later they're going to have trouble breathing," he said.
These hotel guests have shared their experience.
