• Cannot point to the bathroom: If the guest requests directions to the bathroom, do not point to were it is, walk them to the bathroom unless you are the only one at the front desk.

Do not say, “No!” it cannot be done, offer solutions. “I can offer you a express facial or reschedule your visit for another time and when you will be able to receive your full service.”

  • Make blind phone transfers to another front desk person: When you transfer a phone call, let the front desk person know who the caller is and the nature of the phone call.
