If someone is staying at a hotel abroad on Shabbat and does not know whether other Jews are staying at the same hotel, must he investigate this in order to make an eruv chatzerot with a blessing (since the dining room does not unite them, as the food served there is not kosher), or may he make the eruv without a blessing from the outset?
Even if he knows that Jews are staying there, he should not recite a blessing over the eruv, because the obligation of an eruv chatzerot in a hotel is not conclusively established, and we rule that in cases of doubt regarding blessings, one is lenient.
PLEASE NOTE*
Attention: You should not learn from one case to another, each case must be analyzed individually. Generally speaking, it's always best to have contact with a Rabbi in person, not just virtual contact. Note that where there is a local Rabbi("Mara Deatra"), one should ask him. The answers are under the responsibility of the rabbi who responded, and not under the responsibility of the website and/or the Head of the Institution.
