Authorities in South China have recently fined a budget hotel for breaking a rule on rejecting ethnic minority Uyghur guests.
Chinese police have reportedly ordered hotels across the country to ban bookings of visitors from the north-western region of Xinjiang, who are predominantly Muslim.
The rule is part of new security regulations linked to the 19th Party Congress which is set to begin on October 18.
