You will check in and check out guests. You will have to allocate rooms to the different guests. You might have to prepare bills and do basic cashier tasks. In some cases, you will be required to make reservations as well. You will do customer service as well. You will have to respond to inquiries and handle and resolve complaints. If you work in a larger hotel, you might be involved in arranging accommodation and programs for tourist groups or conference delegates. Work shifts are usually not flexible in terms of duration. In addition, you may be required to work until late at night.<\/p>\n<p>In order to become a hotel receptionist, you will need at least GCSEs. Many hotels require applicants to have A levels as well. Higher education in hospitality management might also be required by top hotels. Apart from educational qualifications, you have to have excellent computer skills, communication skills and attention to detail.<\/p>\n<p>The work of a hotel receptionist is not easy, but it is rewarding.
