The Hotel Consumer Protection Coalition, which is made up of over 25,000 hotels in over 100 countries, including many major brands, has filed complaints against .hoteis, as well as six of the seven [[.hotel]] applications, and the applications for [[.hotels]] and [[.hoteles]]. They support the .hotel application submitted by [[HOTEL Top-Level-Domain S.a.r.l]], and urge the [[Independent Objector]] to object to the other applications on community grounds. If this does not occur, they plan to file their own [[Community Objection]]s.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/10101-big-hotel-chains-pick-a-side-in-hotel-gtld-fight Big hotel chains pick a side in .hotel gTLD fight, domainincite.com]</ref>

===GAC Early Warning===

The application was issued two [[GAC]] Early Warnings, from Australia and Germany. The warning system is noted as a strong recommendation on behalf of national governments to the [[ICANN Board]] that a given TLD application should be denied as it stands. Applicants are encouraged to work with objecting GAC members.<ref>[http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/gac-early-warning GAC Early Warning, NewgTLDS.ICANN.org] Retrieved 25 Nov 2012</ref>

The Australian warning states that the applicant is "seeking exclusive access to a common generic string .. that relates to a broad market sector," which Ms. Dryden notes could have unintended consequences and a negative impact on competition. The German warning reiterates this concern, but also adds that it believes .hoteis should be placed in a contentions set with [[.hotels]] and [[.hotel]].<ref>[https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/22938690/Hoteis-DE-87712.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1353453333000 Hoteis DE, GACweb.ICANN.org]</ref>
