Below are results from our contacts with various tourist authorities around the UK and the rest of the world.
BELGIUM (Flanders)"As far as we know, Flanders (north of
Belgium) has no tourist
accommodation equipped with ceiling track hoists. Some hotels or
holiday
centres will provide mobile hoist systems, others will be fit to
install
rented equipment, but in our screening reports we haven't found any
example at all of the type that you are looking for.
Kind regards"

EGYPT
"Concerning fixed track ceiling hoists,
from our experience in Egypt no such hoists are installed or exist
in any hotels or accessible accommodation facilities, I have never
even seen one in a hospital or a rehab center in Egypt till now, if
hoist are used they are portable roller hoists which are most of the
time folded and used on demand, even those are none existent is
hotels or for rent in the market.
sorry,I would have liked to help you
more, but here in Egypt the awareness and the facilities are
still far behind concerning accessibility and special equipment
for the disabled."
CHINA
"For your information, in Beijing, some hotels have several
rooms equipped with accessible facilities, such as wheel-in
shower, wider door width, lower sink, table etc. Yet, as to the
ceiling hoists, as far as we know, there is only one hotel in
Beijing which has one room with this facility. The hotel is
Swissotel Beijing, which is the official hotel designated by the
Beijing Olympic Committee to be used by the disabled athletes
for the 2008 Beijing Paralymic Games. So far, around 20 rooms
have been adapted for the use of the disabled people. Among the
rooms, there is one which has ceiling hoist."
