ROOM NUMBERING METHOD 

The floors of the hotel are numbered in sequence or in series but floor 13 and room number 13 does not exist in hotel because it is considered unlucky for westerners.

Room are numbered in American and British styles. British style is followed by world where, first floor begins above street level. In American style, floor is counted from ground level i.e ground level will be the the first floor.
