A series of earthquakes hit the region Wednesday, including one with a 5.7 magnitude.
Local residents alerted emergency services after the hotel's roof partly collapsed. But rescue efforts were hindered by a snowstorm which blocked access to the hotel.
Pictures showed rescuers shovelling their way through a wall of snow, and at least one man being led through the cleared path.
