They work with guests both in-person and online to reserve their rooms, answer any questions they have about the hotel and provide details and recommendations about activities to do in the surrounding area. Front Desk Agents are typically the first face guests see when they arrive at the hotel. They welcome visitors, assign rooms according to guests’ preferences and provide additional information about the hotel and its amenities. They’ll also collaborate with the housekeeping staff to ensure the rooms are cleaned, organized and furnished prior to guests’ arrival. Front Desk Agents also update hotel records of payments and bookings.
