Knowing the do’s and don’ts of hotel housekeeping can help you retain a great job that provides you with stability and growth. But what are some of these do’s and don’ts of hotel housekeeping?<\/p>\n

Congratulations! You\u2019ve just been hired as a hotel housekeeper. Whether you\u2019re only planning to stay in the role for awhile or want to make a career of it, hotel housekeeping jobs<\/a> are a fantastic way to earn a living. And because of that, you’ll want to know the do’s and don’ts of hotel housekeeping.<\/p>\n

Now that the job is yours, you want to make a great impression. The rules associated with this line of work might be very different from past jobs you\u2019ve held, so familiarize yourself with the proper protocol before getting started.<\/p>\n

5 Do’s and Don’ts of Hotel Housekeeping<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Do: Treat All Guests With Kindness<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every employee interaction adds to the guest experience, so do your part to make it a positive one. Smile at guests, greet them warmly and promptly address all questions, comments and concerns.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t: Invite Friends and Family to the Property<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many hotels have some pretty great amenities \u2014 i.e., pool, spa\u2014 that your friends and family might want to take advantage of. This is obviously not allowed, as these features are for guests only. Granting access to these areas will likely cause you to lose your job. Anyone who respects you will understand this, so stand steady with a firm \u2018no\u2019 on this one.<\/p>\n

Do: Behave Like a Professional at All Times<\/strong><\/p>\n

When on hotel property, you represent the business. You\u2019ll spend a lot of your time unsupervised, but that doesn\u2019t mean you don\u2019t have to follow the rules. Obviously, stealing from guests and going through their personal belongings is a major \u2018don\u2019t,\u2019 but other actions, such as watching television, listening to the radio and using the phone in guest rooms also count as unprofessional, so resist the temptation.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t: Permit Room Access to Anyone But the Registered Guest<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can never be too careful when cleaning a room containing a guest\u2019s belongings. Thieves are everywhere, and it\u2019s not uncommon for them to target hotel housekeepers servicing a room while the occupant is out. It\u2019s always better to be safe than sorry, so never allow anyone but the guest to enter the room on your watch. If in doubt, contact your supervisor for guidance, because you don\u2019t want theft to happen on your watch. This is important when considering do’s and don’ts of hotel housekeeping.<\/p>\n

Do: Put in 100% Effort During Every Shift<\/strong><\/p>\n

The cleanliness of a hotel room is frequently the deciding factor of whether a guest will return for subsequent stays. Like any job, certain responsibilities associated with it might feel a bit repetitive after awhile, but completing each to perfection is a must. Often times, it\u2019s the little things that mean the most, so understand the importance of your job and always give it the energy it deserves.<\/p>\n
