hire hotel receptionists in africa

You hire a hotel receptionist to give every guest a smooth arrival, a clear bill and a friendly face at the desk, day and night. A good receptionist protects your reviews, catches booking errors early and turns small problems into good stays.

A few questions, one at a time, then pick a time for a 30-minute strategy call with our team.

What to check when screening

  • Check their experience with a hotel management system such as Opera or a similar tool.
  • Test their spoken English and French, since many guests switch between the two.
  • Confirm they have handled cash, card payments and end-of-shift reconciliation.
  • Make sure they are available for night, weekend and holiday shifts.

Questions to ask in interview

  • A guest arrives and their booking cannot be found. What do you do?
  • How do you handle an angry guest at the desk while the phone is ringing?
  • What do you check before handing over to the next shift?

Skills to look for

  • Opera PMS
  • Check-in and check-out
  • Reservation management
  • Cash handling and billing
  • English and French
  • Guest complaint handling
