Excellent personalized service, warm treatment and attention to detail are some of the benefits that Mexico Boutique Hotels\u2019 customers receive when they stay in one of this kind of establishments. However, behind all this there exists an arduous labor that sometimes implies a little more of effort on the work team\u2019s side, which brings about the whole set of features that make them unique.<\/p>\n

We will mention some of the points that will surely be familiar to those who are or have been immerse in the \u201cboutique hotel industry\u201d.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s do it, boss!<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is quite common to find the hotel owner or manager greeting the guests with a warm smile at check-in time, even walking them to their room and helping with the luggage.<\/p>\n

It has also happened that, when at dinner time waiters find themselves somewhat in a hurry with service, chiefs come to the rescue and help pick up dishes and tide up tables. There are even hotels where the manager is also THE CHEF! A living example is our very dear Javier P\u00e9rez of Quinta Las Acacias<\/a>\u00a0in\u00a0Guanajuato<\/a>, who besides running this hotel in an excellent manner, offers its customers\u2019 palates recipes and stories of Mexican cuisine with a touch of modernity.<\/p>\n

Multitask <\/strong><\/p>\n

Multitask is a term that has sometimes been criticized as there are those who relate it to the fact of performing several activities at the same time and obtaining a poor result.<\/p>\n

However, our multitask concept refers rather to the fact of performing several tasks within the same position, carrying them out in an orderly manner and with enough time to perform them optimally.<\/p>\n

Thus in a boutique hotel we can see in occasions that the person at the front desk, when the reservations people are absent, have the capability to help them if the bell rings for availability and rates, as they have been previously trained and know what to do when the opportunity arises.<\/p>\n

Cases have been heard when the housekeeper, who performs one of the most important tasks in the hotels, has to distribute her time to support the kitchen with supervision or even with food preparation. This easiness is brought about by the fact that because of an boutique hotel\u2019s exclusivity, it features a small number of rooms, from 2 to 50.<\/p>\n

And what to say about the managers or reservations chiefs who have bet on the social media topic, turning themselves into their own community manager, carrying out all the activities implied. Of course, a previous training is required, with updating courses, workshops, etc. that back them up in their work\u2019s fulfillment.<\/p>\n

All the aforementioned provides an aggregated value to the work of those who have the joy of serving in a boutique hotel, as they possess knowledge that goes beyond pigeonholing themselves into performing only the tasks required by their position and depending on somebody else for other activities.<\/p>\n

A well-deserved round of applause for them!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
