Five front-desk moments that shape a hotel stay

The front desk is where a stay is framed. These are the moments our hotel checklists pay the closest attention to.
The moments
- The acknowledgement — is the guest greeted within seconds, even if staff are busy?
- The check-in conversation — is it efficient, personal and accurate?
- The room explanation — are key facilities and timings shared without a script?
- The request — when a guest calls down, how quickly and fully is it resolved?
- The farewell — is the bill right first time, and is the guest invited back?
Each of these can be observed, timed and scored. Together they explain a large part of how a guest feels about the stay.
