Standard Door Service and Greetings Procedure For Hotel Doorman


Purpose of this SOP:
The Doorman should be familiar and trained with the process of greeting and handling guests. The primary objective is to give a positive impression of the hotel as well as to acknowledge the importance of the guests in the hotel to raise the self-esteem of guests by addressing them by their name. This will let the guest feel home away from home service at the hotel.

Door Service and Greetings Standard Procedure:

Greet the guest with a big smile and pleasantries.
