This is top of mind since my wife and I are at The Historic Cavalier Hotel & Beach Club for a few days. I worked in luxury hotels for 12 years. It was HARD work. When expectations are incredibly high, it can lead to guests who sometimes act…out of character…to put it nicely. Here are a few things you can do to make the staff’s life easier or make someone’s day: - Arriving early? Call ahead and let the front desk know. - Want a late check out? Ask at check in. - TIP. And tip well. I’m not going to say what most hotel employees make hourly, but it’s not enough to survive on by itself. 20% minimum for food service. $20/day for housekeeping (can be a range here depending on the type of hotel). $5/bag for bellmen. Tipping for front desk, concierge, beach staff, etc has a wider range, but most of these employees are usually hourly as well. - Have a good experience? Leave a review online! Have a bad experience? Speak with someone face to face during the stay. Nobody can fix your issue if you wait to vent until after you leave. Hotels will bend over backwards to do a “service recovery” if you give them the opportunity. - Help your housekeeper along the way and at checkout. I strip the bed at check out and organize all of the dirty towels in one place. I know this is excessive for most, but if you’ve ever worked a full shift helping strip beds and flip rooms, you know how much this helps. If you don’t want to do this, make sure you tip accordingly!

TOP 5 ⭐️ Must-do to retain your hotel Housekeeping Team 🫧 🧹 Part of the solution is to give them a clear development pathway. 🔑 94% of employees say they’d stay at a company for longer if it was invested in their professional development. One way you can do this is by encouraging your team to develop their soft skills as well as their hard skills. Make sure they’re focussing on: 1️⃣ Time management: being efficient and balancing a full workload is a must in a busy hotel. 2️⃣ Attention to detail: the little things count. Make sure your guests don’t find cobwebs in corners or that the mirror hasn’t been cleaned, for example. 3️⃣ Communication: vital to make sure your team works well together, and knows who’s responsible for what. 4️⃣ Flexibility: housekeepers often work varied hours, and initiatives like opt-in housekeeping require them to change up what they’re working on day-to-day. 5️⃣ Customer service: your housekeepers are the face of your hotel - the more they can make guests feel valued, the better. Let us know what you would add to the list! 🧐

⁉ Anyone can do a task, however, as hotel/motel business owners and managers we want our relief managers and housekeeping teams to care and take pride in their work. 😢 Too often owners and managers say, ‘Well, I pay them to work, so they should do a good job.’ When it is considered that payment is the only reward required, the relief managers and housekeeping team will ‘do the job,’ and often that is all.....just! 🤔 However, if in addition efforts are appreciated and acknowledged, relief managers and your housekeeping team will begin to ‘own’ their jobs and suddenly all tasks are undertaken to a higher standard and with a more positive attitude. 😀 Heck, they might even enjoy themselves and have fun! I don’t know about you, but when I am having fun, I feel energetic and ready to do anything, just how you want your relief managers and housekeeping teams to feel, right? #Management #motel #motels #hotelsandresorts #housekeeping #housekeepingteam #housekeepingservices #housekeepingjobs #appreciationpost #thankyou #contractorservices BWH Hotels Australasia
