Trainer: Be knowledgeable about the hotel’s services, facilities, of what they can do within a function, directions, know who is dealing with the function, try and understand the customer’s company and what type of people you are going to be dealing with. Go out of your way to pleasantly surprise them.

  17. At every opportunity use the guests name. Brand Standards

  18. At every opportunity use the guests name. Trainer: Why do we have Brand Standards? Ensures consistency, maintains standards, working for Hilton and this is a brand with over 77 hotels in UK & Ireland - some of our guests do visit other Hilton hotels! Why do you think using the guests name is one of our Hilton’s Brand Standards? Makes the guest feel special, it is personalised, it shows you have made a special effort. In what ways can you find out what the name of the guest is? Through you having a conversation with the guest, keycard, event information, or simply asking. Once you know it, take the opportunities to use - notice the reaction you get! Brand Standards
