Enumerating some possibilities, here are things the hotel can do:
* Deauth jam nothing
* Deauth jam "evil twin" access points only
* Deauth jam above plus access points "similar" to the official wifi (have fun trying to prevent homoglyph attacks)
* Deauth jam all unofficial unencrypted access points (preventing an attack from monitoring probe requests and spinning up matching fake APs on the fly) perhaps with a whitelist of "known" nearby wireless networks to leave alone
* Deauth jam all unofficial WiFi (what they want to do)
There's not really much difference from a security standpoint between those last two, though I suppose someone could set up an encrypted rouge network like "FreeWifi - password is swordfish" and/or make flyers for their evil network.
Basically, I could empathize with them arguing to jam any open wireless networks, but jamming encrypted wireless networks in the name of security is a major stretch.
