It’s one of those godawful side mounted fire sprinkler heads that seem to appear in every hotel room. Why in the hells they’re always mounted there rather than on the ceiling where they won’t tempt idiots to hang things from them is a mystery.
Nope. They’re ubiquitous in American hotels. I suspect they run the plumbing down the inside of the bathroom wall, because they are universally on the wall separating the back of the bathroom from the bedroom area, facing towards the bed(s).
What is this? I’m from a place where fire alarms just don’t exist in houses, not a common item available for purchase.

I have never in life seen a side-mounted sprinkler, thought this pic was of a odd ceiling!

It’s a fire sprinkler with iirc a plug that melts when it gets too hot and releases the water automatically.
The plug material is fragile and hanging things off of it risks damaging it and accidentally unplugging the water, hence the sign
What part of the world are you in where fire alarms are not a thing?
He thought this was in a home and got the wrong term for “sprinkler”.

Hotel.
Not an alarm, sprinkler head.
