Authorities detained the suspect on Tuesday afternoon after two of the alleged victims reported a series of incidents at the hotel. The man is alleged to have posed as a hotel employee before approaching the women, The Sun reported.
The suspect is alleged to have opened a door for the two British tourists and persuaded them to follow him into a bathroom.
Once inside, he allegedly prevented them from leaving by grabbing their arms. Investigators say he then groped the 19-year-old woman and attempted to kiss the younger tourist while placing his hand under her skirt.
The women later reported that the man followed them into a female bathroom area, removed his clothing and began showering.
Police arrested the suspect shortly after 1:30pm on Tuesday following the complaints.
