Let's assume that Pokerstars has some pull with the hotel here, presumably they do.
Assuming it was someone from Pokerstars (my first thought would be the guy meeting with hotel security), what if that person from Pokerstars who was meeting with hotel security told hotel security some BS like this:
"Here's the deal. We've suspected that these players are cheating and have some sort of special software on their laptops that we've never been able to identify or get our hands on. We needed to physically access their laptops in order to check them out and track down this software, and that is why we needed to briefly take the laptops from their room. Now, obviously I don't need to tell you that these players can't know this. So how about I give you a few thousand dollars and we'll try explain this away as his roommate was behind the whole thing all along. I'm sure we can convince him of that."
