Answer

Should hotels in Mallorca and abroad review CCTV quickly after a guest disappears?

Yes, CCTV should be checked as soon as possible because recordings are often overwritten after a short time. Hotels can sometimes provide key clues about when a guest left, whether they returned, and who else was seen nearby. That is why quick access to footage is often one of the first requests in a missing-person case.
