    I start my front desk agent job tomorrow I’m excited since most hotels didn’t hire me because I’ve mainly done general labour work with 3 years of customer service work but I’m definitely glad I came across this video to give me an in sight of how the job actually is thanks for this video

    With all due respect. this to me is the bare minimum of what "hospitality" should be. But the True experience comes with the personality, the eagerness to want to assist the guest, and the genuine recognition of reward members. also, no attempt to even try to enroll the guest who were staying extended for 15 days. wow. also, the guest was more excited to be there, than the agent was to have them. he made me feel awkward. NOW please don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to bash, or disrespect the guy. he didn't do a bad job, he just did minimum in my eyes.
    tbh, my jaw dropped when I heard "Hilton".
    I love the hospitality industry, and I'm proud to be in it everyday! I love our guest! I love the true meaning of Southern Hospitality!

    Wow great job, very descriptive, gave lots of real life examples on how to problem solve, this video was well made. I’m starting front desk so I’ve been seeking videos to see what it’s like and how I can deal with certain situations/what it’s actually like in a hotel. Glad I stumbled upon this. Most of the other videos I was finding were bad acting and basically didn’t take it seriously. Again, thank you for the video!

  • @GTheGuy
    @GTheGuy Před 7 lety +40

    One thing you should never do is say "no problem" (near the end of the video) you are implying that there was a problem. Be sure to say you're very welcome.

    Ask for ID first, then explain incidentals before asking for security payments. Good job never saying the room number out loud, and I suggest mentioning floor level quietly. Ask Smith for ID before offering any comps, and I suggest a room inspection because anybody could say "bugs" are in there, but use discretion.

    I’ve worked at the front desk for medium size ‘ economy hotel ‘ for about 9 months. This guy checked in and out the same guests. He is either having some really long work days or these people are having really short stays. The really short stays are rarely for anything good.
    I’ve seen or heard guests who ranged from ordinary people to lunatics. I had a woman who demanded a full return because there were wrinkles in her pillowcase. I had a mental case who insisted that there were people standing outside his room while I was watching the security cameras and telling him that nobody was in the hallway. This guy called the police twice in about a 3 hour time period. After the second time, I told him to leave. We don’t want the police there at all for any reason. Last week, we had a woman who was arrested when she took a swing at the front desk lady that I relieved. I had to go to work about 2 hours early that night. She was extremely upset because the swimming pool hot tub didn’t heat up fast enough for her. She wanted 2 free nights and when the front desk attendant refused and asked her to leave. The guest supposedly called the police , the parent company headquarters and her lawyer in about a 10 minute time period. She started becoming extremely hostile when the front desk attendant wouldn’t call the GM at home. Eventually, that’s when the front desk asked her to leave and the guest took a swing at her. The front desk did call the police and this guest was arrested. This guest went to different type of hotel but this one isn’t exactly as comfortable as her last one.

    I don't know that I'd label this as "great" customer service. It was good, and certainly adequate, but nothing stellar or out of the ordinary. Very low-energy front desk guy, no smiles, just the facts. Which, for me, would be perfectly okay. Efficiency and speed is all I need personally, but I'd distinguish between that and "great" service.

    always welcome guest
    don't say amounts or room rates out loud
    never point
    never say "no problem"
    never say "I need" to a guest
    say complimentary, instead of free
    always use your name
    offer help with bags, when possible, even if guest doesn't appear to have many bags
    with room issues, always have someone escort guest up to new room

    Love the vid, but management needs to fix this guy's desk. It's so ergonomically incorrect that he's literally slouching near thigh level just to view his monitor.
    They need to revamp his desk because if I was a customer or a tenant and I saw this, I'd be infuriated at their management.
    Get him a proper high chair, desk, and adjust the height if need be. Is that too much to ask for?

    boy was I wrong. So sorry for that. If you know the person, you don't have to ask for an ID. I didn't hear him say the tier of honors that she is. No problem. How about they are on their way up right now. Why is that not in her profile? They should be in her room already. He really loves that no problem thing. Did any of the receive their bill under the door? Did they want to keep the payment on the C.C. that was on file?
