This is because, the hotel will carry out an economic activity which implies registering a company. Then specific regulations related to the&nbsp;<strong>hotel industry<\/strong>&nbsp;must be complied with. Among these, the Hotel Contract Conditions Act, shortly known as the OHBV, is the most important as it regulates the relations between the&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.companyformationaustria.com\/register-company-austria\">company<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;and its clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The OHBV provides for the rights and obligations of both clients and the service provider, which is the&nbsp;<strong>Austrian hotel<\/strong>.
